Assembly Programming is a low-level programming language that gives programmers direct access to the computer's hardware and memory. Assembly language is a symbolic representation of the binary machine code that the computer's processor understands. Assembly language programming is often used in embedded systems, operating systems, and other performance-critical applications where efficient use of hardware resources is essential.
