Assembly language programming develops a very basic and low-level understanding of the computer. In higher-level languages, there is a distance between the computer and the programmer. This is because higher-level languages are designed to be closer and friendlier to the programmer, thereby creating distance with the machine. This distance is covered by translators called compilers and interpreters. The aim of programming in assembly language is to bypass these intermediates and talk directly with the computer.Assembly language cannot be learned by reading a book or by attending a course. It is a language that must be tasted and enjoyed. There is no other way to learn it. You will need to try every example, observe and verify the things you are told about it, and experiment a lot with the computer. Only then you will know and become able to appreciate how powerful, versatile, and simple this language is; the three properties that are hardly ever present together.Whether you program in C/C++ or Java or in any programming paradigm be it object-oriented or declarative, everything has to boil down to the bits and bytes of assembly language before the computer can even understand it.
