Re: [Haskell-cafe] Compilers: Why do we need a core language?

Hello,

I know nothing about compilers and interpreters. I checked several books, but none of them explained why we have to translate a high-level language into a small (core) language. Is it impossible (very hard) to directly translate high-level language into machine code?

What would be the point in doing so?
