2. • It envolves following steps :
– Creation of program
– Compilation program
– Linking with another modules from C library
– loading program into computer memory
3.
4. Creation the program
• First of all, we will create our program. This is
known as source Code.
• Source code is user understandable and it is
not computer understandable.
5. Compiling the program
• source code is then translated into object
code using compiler. Source code acts as an
input to compiler and object code is output.
6. Linking of program
• Linker-> is program that combines separately
written modules into one program(file)
• C/c++ has given you some inbuilt
function/classes that will be linked to your
program using linker.
• Linker simply refers to creation of single file
from multiple object files.
7. Loading of Program
• Loader simply loads the linked object file into
memory for execution

9. Time taken during these steps
• Compilation Time : Time taken by compiler to
convert source code into object code.
• Run Time : time taken by program for its
execution
