Question

If a compiler detects a violation of language rules, it refuses to translate the class to ____.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is a. Machine code

Explanation:

The syntax of a language is a set of rules that indicates how to write programs.

A compiler is a system that in most cases has to handle an incorrect entry. Especially in the early stages of creating a program.

Syntactic errors are those that occur at the time of writing the program in the high level programming language and that do not comply with the grammatical rules of said programming language. These errors are generally detected by the compiler itself, since it only translates programs that are ''well written''. Therefore, a program that contains syntactic errors can never be compiled.

In summary, syntax errors are detected in the process of translating source code into binary code. On the contrary that happens with the errors of execution and of logic, that can only be detected when the program in being executed.

Answer 2

Answer:

a. machine code

Explanation:

When we code a program, be it in C, C++, Java, etc,..., the role of the compiler is to translate our code to machine code, so it can be executed.

This only happens if we do not violate any of the language rules. Otherwise, there are going to be compilation errors and we will have to fix our code before it is compiled, that is, translated to machine code.

So the correct answer is:

a. machine code
