introduction (cont’d)
assembly language program:
source code, symbolic code, not executable
machine language program:
binary coded instructions, object code, executable
assembler:
translates assembly to machine language
linker: when the object code is not “absolute”
(“relocatable”) linking is required to combine
relocatable modules
segment : unit of code or data memory
module : contains one or more segments (also
partial). An object code has one more more modules
program: merged single module executable in binary
