In order to communicate with computer we required mediator (translator) between computer and we human . the programme gives instruction in programming language which he knows, then translator convert it into machine language according to instruction. Translator: It is System Software( it is nothing but program which it design either to run hardware or our application program) which is use to convert programming language code into machine, Translator classified into three types 1.
