IDE
An integrated development environment (IDE) is a programming environment
that has been packaged as an application program, typically consisting
of a code editor, a compiler, a debugger, and a graphical user interface (GUI)
builder. The IDE may be a standalone application or may be included as
part of one or more existing and compatible applications. The BASIC
programming language, for example, can be used within Microsoft Office
applications, which makes it possible to write a WordBasic program
within the Microsoft Word application. IDEs provide a user-friendly
framework for many modern programming languages, such as Visual Basic, Java, and PowerBiulder
