When you write a program it is saved as text (*.txt) or a basic (*.bas) file that contains a text. It is possible to write programs even in Notepad. QuickBasic editor helps you to correct errors and see how your programs work. It also includes some additional futures.
To change code (text) to the executable the compiler is needed. Compiler Change your text that you created to executable DOS programs (*.exe). QuickBasic 4.1 and PDS got some of the best compilers.
EDITOR -------------> *.BAS (contains text/code) --------------> Linker* --------------------> Compiler ------------------> DOS executable (exe)
*Linker check your code; if it finds PRINT command it activates library that contains 'print' instructions and compiler prints them to file.
