  2. C (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_(programming_language)

    C ( pronounced / ˈsiː / – like the letter c) [6] is a general-purpose programming language. It was created in the 1970s by Dennis Ritchie and remains very widely used and influential. By design, C's features cleanly reflect the capabilities of the targeted CPUs. It has found lasting use in operating systems code (especially in kernels [7 ...

  3. History of compiler construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_compiler...

    Originally authored by Richard Stallman in 1987, GCC is a major modern compiler which is used to compile many free software projects, notably Linux. LLVM, formerly known as the Low Level Virtual Machine. Small-C by Ron Cain and James E Hendrix. Turbo Pascal, created by Anders Hejlsberg, first released in 1983.

  4. C syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_syntax

    A snippet of C code which prints "Hello, World!". The syntax of the C programming language is the set of rules governing writing of software in C. It is designed to allow for programs that are extremely terse, have a close relationship with the resulting object code, and yet provide relatively high-level data abstraction.

  5. C preprocessor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_preprocessor

    The C preprocessor is the macro preprocessor for several computer programming languages, such as C, Objective-C, C++, and a variety of Fortran languages. The preprocessor provides inclusion of header files, macro expansions, conditional compilation, and line control. The language of preprocessor directives is only weakly related to the grammar ...

  6. Compiled language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compiled_language

    A compiled language is a programming language for which source code is typically compiled; not interpreted . The term is vague since, in principle, any language can be compiled or interpreted and in practice some languages are both (in different environments). [1] In some environments, source code is first compiled (to an intermediate form ...

  7. Just-in-time compilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_compilation

    MSVC. v. t. e. In computing, just-in-time ( JIT) compilation (also dynamic translation or run-time compilations) [1] is compilation (of computer code) during execution of a program (at run time) rather than before execution. [2] This may consist of source code translation but is more commonly bytecode translation to machine code, which is then ...

  8. Compiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compiler

    Program execution. In computing, a compiler is a computer program that translates computer code written in one programming language (the source language) into another language (the target language). The name "compiler" is primarily used for programs that translate source code from a high-level programming language to a low-level programming ...

  9. Execution (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Execution_(computing)

    Execution in computer and software engineering is the process by which a computer or virtual machine interprets and acts on the instructions of a computer program. Each instruction of a program is a description of a particular action which must be carried out, in order for a specific problem to be solved. Execution involves repeatedly following ...
