Compiler, which translates the source code to machine code, but not the object program, Answer should be "None of the above".

A program which translates source program into target machine code is called compiler.

A program that converts instructions into a machine-code or lower-level form so that they can be read and executed by a computer.

We are written programs in languages like C, Java, etc etc. We know these are all languages which are used for display desired output. But, device can't understands properly, it feels like a high level languages. On that time the compiler converts the program into binary code, that understands by the computer and generates the output which we want.

We are written instruction in higher level language, while we use programming language like c, c++, java, .Net, COBOL all these languages are high level languages. While we are writing any instruction using these language that are written in high level language means user understandable language. But these instruction that device can not understand, so for that we use compiler, interpreter & assembler. All these are the translators.
