The next step will be introducing variables into the compiler; imagine that we want to write a compiler which compile only some functions of a language. Introducing practical tutorials and resources is highly appreciated :-)Fri, 17 Apr 2026 18:28:00 GMThttps://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/118586/how-does-a-compiler-workA compiler is a program that translates the source code for another program from a programing language into executable code. The source code is typically in a high-level programming language (e. g. Pascal, C, C++, Java, Perl, C#, etc.).Tue, 14 Apr 2026 13:31:00 GMThttps://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/84278/how-do-i-create-my-own-programming-language-and-a-compiler-for-itA "compiler" is any device that translates from one programming language to another. One of the nice things about having a C# compiler that turns C# into IL, and an IL compiler (the "jitter") that turns IL into machine code, is that you get to write the C# compiler to IL (easy!), and put the processor-specific optimizations in the jitter.Tue, 14 Apr 2026 01:07:00 GMThttps://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/300593/does-an-interpreter-produce-machine-codeA Java compiler produces code for the JVM. So the target machine of a compiler can be a virtual machine that is not executed directly by the hardware. The main difference between interpreter and compiler is that a compiler first checks and translates the whole source code into a target machine language. This compiled code is then executed by the machine it was meant for. On the other hand, an ...Fri, 17 Apr 2026 04:16:00 GMThttps://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/136942/why-doesnt-python-need-a-compilerJust wondering (now that I've started with C++ which needs a compiler) why Python doesn't need a compiler? I just enter the code, save it as an exec, and run it. In C++ I have to make builds and a...Wed, 15 Apr 2026 23:31:00 GMThttps://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/419779/c-is-it-bad-practice-to-use-compiler-specific-functionsYou should avoid using such compiler-specific functions in the main body of your code, exactly because of the #ifdef hell it creates. If such a compiler-specific function is the best choice at some point in your code, you should wrap it in an (inline) function of your own.Thu, 16 Apr 2026 10:30:00 GMThttps://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/273698/why-are-there-so-few-c-compilersThe question is based upon a false premise. Analog Devices, armcc, Bruce's C Compiler, the Bare-C Cross Compiler, the Borland compiler, the clang compiler, the Cosmic C compiler, the CodeWarrior compiler, the dokto compiler, the Ericsson compiler, and I'm not even out of the first five letters of the alphabet yet. There is an insanely large number of C compilers. The question is "why are there ...Wed, 15 Apr 2026 19:21:00 GMThttps://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/246094/understanding-the-differences-traditional-interpreter-jit-compiler-jit-interpI'm trying to understand the differences between a traditional interpreter, a JIT compiler, a JIT interpreter and an AOT compiler.

Suppose I have some piece of code that breaks when compiled with higher optimizations level only. How do i know if it's the code or the compiler and what do I do if it's the compiler?Mon, 13 Apr 2026 07:49:00 GMThttps://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/372105/is-passing-arguments-as-const-references-premature-optimizationHow compiler optimization affects this answer When inlining (and also whole-program optimization / link-time optimization) is applied across several levels of function calls, the compiler is able to see (sometimes exhaustively) the flow of data.Wed, 15 Apr 2026 19:06:00 GMT
