Compiling C Program

Dear readers,

       In this lesson we tell you how to compile C Program ?....

SO FRIENDS LETS START LEARNING

• Compiling C Program :-

                  You write the source code of the program by following rules of the programming language (i.e. C language).

     

 The source Code is not understandable by the computer. The source code must be translated into machine code before running on the computer. The process of translating source code into machine code is called compiling.

       The C compiler is used to translate the C program source code into the machine code. The translated code is called object code.

 when C compiler translates the source code, a new file created for object code with extension "obj". The first part of the name of object file is same as that of source file. 

For Example :-

           If source file name is "test.c", then object file name will be "test.obj".

                             To complete the C program source code into object code in Turbo C IDE, follow these steps.

• Press Shortcut Alt+F9
•                  OR
• Select Compile command from compile of menu bar.

If there is no error in the source code, it will be translated to object code successfully. If there are errors in the source code, compiler will not compile the source code and will report about the errors in the source code. All errors must be removed from the source code before creating the object code of the source code.
