Object code is a mnemonic representation of [Machine code]?. Hence each machine instruction is represented by a three or four letter sequence, with other mnemonics and numbers used to represent computer registers and memory addresses. Hence ADD, R1, R2 would represent an instruction to add together register one to register two leaving the result in a defined place, (R1 or another place such as the Accumulator) |

Object code is an intermediate representation of code generated by a compiler after it processes a source code file. Object files contain compact, pre-parsed code that can be linked with other object files to generate a final executable? or code library. |
