What is a source file?
A source code file contains a sequence of instructions that tell a computer what to do. In most cases, these instructions are written in a programming language like C++ or Java. However, they can also be written in assembly language, which is a more direct representation of the underlying machine code. A source code file typically has a “.cpp” or “.java” extension, although the extension can vary depending on the programming language and the development environment. When a programmer writes a program, they typically create one or more source code files. These files are then compiled into an executable file, which can be run on a computer. Executable files typically have a “.exe” extension on Windows systems, and a “.out” extension on Unix-based systems. A programmer can also create libraries of routines, which are collections of pre-compiled code that can be reused in other programs. Such libraries typically have a “.lib” extension on Windows systems, and a “.a” or “.so” extension on Unix-based systems.
