A program that translates from a lower level language to a higher level language is a _____________

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

A decompiler is a program that translates from a low-level language to a higher level one. A low-level language is one that is close to the machine code, such as assembly or binary. A higher level language is one that is more abstract and human-readable, such as C++ or Java. A decompiler can reverse-engineer the source code from an executable file, which can be useful for debugging, analysis, or modification purposes.However, decompilation is not always possible or accurate, as some information may be lost or obfuscated during the compilation process12.Reference:1: What is a compiler?How source code becomes machine code12: How does an interpreter/compiler work2

I thought mediator was a term used in networking, so I don't think that's it.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like translator could also fit.

I think it's a compiler, but I keep mixing it up with decompiler.
