👉 Compilations are software development processes that involve creating a new version of an existing program. These programs can be written in any programming language, such as C++, Java, or Python, and then compiled into a binary executable file for later execution on a computer system. Compilations are often used to speed up the development process by reducing the time required to write and execute code, but they also involve additional overhead due to the need to optimize the code for performance and efficiency.
