Compilation System: understand how source code becomes machine code via preprocessing, compiling, assembling, linking, and loading. What is a Computer System? A computer system combines hardware (CPU, main memory, storage, I/O devices, buses) and software (OS, compilers, libraries, applications). Mental…
