Detailed explanation-1: -Assembly language is a low-level computer programming language. Its instructions are short mnemonics, such as ADD, SUB (subtract), and JMP (jump), that match machine language instructions. An assembler converts assembly language into machine language. A disassembler converts machine language into assembly.
Detailed explanation-2: -A computer program that converts assembly language to machine language is Compiler. Compiler is a program that converts instructions into a machine-code or lower-level form so that they can be read and executed by a computer. Assembly language may also be called symbolic machine code.
Detailed explanation-3: -An assembler is a program that takes basic computer instructions and converts them into a pattern of bits that the computer’s processor can use to perform its basic operations. Some people call these instructions assembler language and others use the term assembly language.
Detailed explanation-4: -So all you have to do is identify each opcode in the assembly language, map it to the corresponding machine instruction, and write the machine instruction out to a file, along with its corresponding parameters (if any). You then repeat the process for each additional opcode in the source file.
