Describe the steps that transform a program written in a high-level language such as c into a representation that is directly executed by a computer processor (e. g., machine language).

Solution:

Firstly the instructions are parsed, one at a time, and each instruction is converted to the equivalent machine language (ML) binary CPU commands.  

The relative addresses are noted so that any jumps, loops, etc., can be updated to point to the correct (relative) address, and the binary codes representing the loop, jump, etc., will be replace with correct addresses.  

Thus, once all instructions are converted to ML instructions, and all addresses are replaced by the actual (relative) in-memory address, all the instructions are written (as actual binary) to an executable file along with loading instructions (in machine language), telling the CPU where to put the executable program in memory, and then the starting address of the program so the CPU will know where to actually find the program within the memory.

okay, so i know we just goofed around in that chat, but ive been like genuinly depressed, like medically depressed for almost 4 years now. i had my first panic attack when i was 8. i woke my mum up and told her i felt like i was in a dream. like i was a goldfish in a bowl, looking at all these things going on around me and feeling . tiny. wort hless. and i now am now 17 y/o. i still feel those emotions daily. life used to go by so quick.like every day i would wake up and just like want to go back to bed cause i always felt like i was in the wrong place. i guess looking back, i was in the wrong state of mind. i took a expensive like nice trip to whyoming with my grandfather and ha ted it. like idk why. i would have loved it now, but i found myself writing in a journal everyday because i would forget what happened the day before, couldnt remember what i ate for like the previous meal. just my memory left me for the week i was there. worst feeling ive ever experienced.
