GCSE Computing – programming languages • Integrated Development Environment • The Code editor • Provides a text editing area that helps to organise the code by managing the layout, including: indenting structures and colour coding the command words, variables and comments so that they can be easily identified. Some include other features such as autocomplete wizards • Error Diagnostics • Include an errors and warnings list to identify and problems in the code • The run time environment • Allows the developer to run the code during development. This can be used to check for logical errors or that the code does what it is expected to do.
GCSE Computing – programming languages • Integrated Development Environment • The translator • Compiles or interprets the source code into suitable machine code instructions that can be run on the computer. • The auto documentation • A feature that takes note of all the variables, modules, subroutines and comments as the project is developed and tidies this up into a text file that can be used during any maintenance of the program.
