Answer 2

A linker program links (Option b) the program with other programs needed for its execution.

• A linker is the computer application which actually assists in the linking of program object modules into only a single object file.
• As input it takes assembler object modules andas outputs an executable file to the loader.
• However, it does not place the program in a specific area of memory for the purpose of execution. Also, it does not interface the program with entities generating the input data!
