| 16 | A compiler translates source code in text format to a format
|
|---|
| 17 | that a computer understands. After a source code file is compiled into
|
|---|
| 18 | an object file, a linker will create an executable file from one or more
|
|---|
| 19 | of these compiler generated object files.

| 26 | <para>
|
|---|
| 27 | A pre-processor pre-processes a source file, such as including
|
|---|
| 28 | the contents of header files into the source file. It's a good idea to
|
|---|
| 29 | not
|
|---|
| 30 | do this manually to save a lot of time. Someone just inserts a line
|
|---|
| 31 | like #include <filename>. The pre-processor inserts the
|
|---|
| 32 | contents of that file into the source file. That's one of the things a
|
|---|
| 33 | pre-processor does.

|

| 41 | The C++ library is used by C++ programs. The C++ library contains
|
|---|
| 42 | functions that are frequently used in C++ programs. This way the
|
|---|
| 43 | programmer doesn't have to write certain functions (such as writing a
|
|---|
| 44 | string of text to the screen) from scratch every time he creates a
|
|---|
| 45 | program.
