In computer programming, assembly language (or assembler language), sometimes abbreviated asm, is any low-level programming language in
which there is a very strong correspondence between the instructions in the language and the architecture's machine code instructions.
Assembly language usually has one statement per machine instruction (1:1), but constants, comments, assembler directives, symbolic labels of, e.
g.
, memory locations, registers, and macros are generally also supported.
Assembly code is converted into executable machine code by a utility program referred to as an assembler.
The term "assembler" is generally attributed to Wilkes, Wheeler and Gill in their 1951 book The Preparation of Programs for an Electronic Digital Computer,
who, however, used the term to mean "a program that assembles another program consisting of several sections into a single program".
The conversion process is referred to as assembly, as in assembling the source code.
The computational step when an assembler is processing a program is called assembly time.
Assembly language may also be called symbolic machine code.
Because assembly depends on the machine code instructions, each assembly language is specific to a particular computer architecture.
Sometimes there is more than one assembler for the same architecture, and sometimes an assembler is specific to an operating system or to particular operating systems.
Most assembly languages do not provide specific syntax for operating system calls, and most assembly languages can be used universally with any operating system,
as the language provides access to all the real capabilities of the processor, upon which all system call mechanisms ultimately rest.
