You are a Pascal teacher (a very good programmer using assembly language (i.e., machine language) of your local machine). You are given only the following programmes:

(a) A compiler written in P-code: translate a program in Pascal to one in P-code (P-code is very close to your local machine language).

b) A P-code interpreter written in Pascal: able to interpret any program written in P-code.

Questions

a) What will you do (with minimal effort) to run the Pascal programs your students submit on your local machine?

b) If you are given a compiler written in Pascal which translate a program in Pascal to a program in P-code, how can you produce a compiler in machine language that compiles a program in Pascal to a program in machine language?
