Assembly Language

Code

In computer programming, there are hundreds of languages to choose from to write software, but when it comes down to it, they all get converted down to machine code eventually, even high level scripting languages like JavaScript.

Assembly language is the human readable form of machine code.  People write Assembly Language programs using a source code editor (a glorified text editor, optimized for writing computer code).  They then feed their source code into a program called an assembler to convert it into true machine code so that the CPU can execute it.

Assembly Language should not be confused with Assembler Language, though even some of the most experienced developers make the mistake.
