Hello aspirant,

The difference between compiler and assembler is that a compiler is used to convert high-level programming language code into machine language code. On the other hand, an assembler converts assembly level language code into machine language code.

Types of Compiler

Single Pass Compilers.

Two Pass Compilers.

Multipass Compilers.

An assembler translates a program written in assembly language into machine language and is effectively a compiler for the assembly language, but can also be used interactively like an interpreter. Assembly language is a low-level programming language.

Thankyou
