Detailed explanation-1: -This means that assembly code is often used when writing low level fast code for specific hardware.
Detailed explanation-2: -Assembly or assembler language was the second generation of computer language. By the late 1950s, this language had become popular. Assembly language consists of letters of the alphabet. This makes programming much easier than trying to program a series of zeros and ones.
Detailed explanation-3: -Second Generation Language An assembly language is a low-level symbolic code converted by an assembler. Assembly language uses notations that an assembler converts to machine language. Programmers write the code using abbreviations (mnemonics) for the assembly language.
Detailed explanation-4: -Second Generation: By 1950, computers were being programmed in assembly language. As we saw earlier, one line in Assembly Language is translated into one machine instruction by a program called an assembler.
Detailed explanation-5: -The second-generation languages are also called assembler languages/ 2G languages. Assembly language contains human-readable notations that can be further converted to machine language using an assembler.
