 		 #150924 - Aside: Assembler vs Compiler
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Brian Reid said:
the compiler I'm using...

Actually, you're not using a Compiler at all - you're using an Assembler:

  • "Assembly" is low-level programming; the process of translating assembly source is called "assembling" and is done by an "assembler".


  • 'C' is a high-level language; the process of translating high-level source is called "compiling" and is done by a "compiler".

    The processes are different (compiling is much more complicated) - so they have different names.
