Ide(integrated development environment) is just a text editor with compiler. A compiler is used to convert that c++ or other languages (specifically created for a particular programing language) to machine language. Every programing languages have different compiler. Like GCC is most popular compiler for c++. Now a days all ide is come with compiler of their own. If you know java, in that you have to download JVM in that there is javac it is compiler. it used to compile .java to .class. For more comment below

IDE is integrated development environment. which means everything is integrated into one software. this includes editors, compilers, interpreters everything. but compiler is just a program which compiles the code and doesnt have editing features
