Assembly language

Assembly language is defined as:


 * A language -- verbs, nouns, syntax, etc. -- used by programmers to write computer programs. It is relatively ‘low level’ in that the programmer must keep many machine details in mind.

It consists of simple symbolic names, mnemonic abbreviations and alphanumeric symbols that can be understood by programmers. It is generally considered to be an “intermediate”-level programming language. An assembly language program is converted into machine-readable form by an assembler program.
