What does the assembly code database refer to in the context of compiler design?

Show Answers

A fixed table containing all the language's reserved words and special symbols in symbolic formThe assembly language representation of the program generated during code generation, which serves as input for the assembly phaseA permanent set of pattern-based decision rules used to match against the symbol table to identify syntactic structuresA complete or partial list of tokens as they appear in the source code, produced by lexical analysis and utilized during syntax analysis and interpretation

Explanation

Option B is correct because the assembly code database represents the program's assembly language form produced by the code generation phase, which is then fed into the assembly phase. The other options describe different compiler components: A refers to a table of reserved words and symbols, C to syntactic pattern rules, and D to the token list from lexical analysis.
