A compiler is a program to convert the written program into a machine executable code.
That basically means that you write a program in text and it is converted to binary numbers that the computer can understand and thereby perform the actions on the program.
Not all programs require compilers.
HTML is the markup language of the internet and also has the script language Javascript or Visual Basic.
The Script program can be typed into a notepad window and saved.
Then executed by double clicking on the icon.
For languages like Fortran they require a compile to make executable code.

You should learn FORTRAN and write your programs.
