>what are C compilers written in?
C compilers tend to also be C++ compilers, and they're generally written primarily in C or C++.

I'm here to prove you wrong.

And that includes their Pascal compilers...
They wrote a compiler stub that could compile a minimal subset of the intended language in machine code or Assembly, used that to compile a compiler that could do a bit more of the language, and so on until they had one that could compile the entire language specification.
When they had that they could use that compiler to compile compilers for other languages like C++ and C#.
As people are clearly allowed to attack me but I'm not allowed to defend myself, I no longer post to this site.

What is machine code written in logic gates?
Don't worry. u r not writing world's *FIRST* compiler. u can use VC++, Dev-C++, Borland, .Net, Java, or any other language that can process text and can call OS API's 2 write ur compiler.
