πŸš€ Introduction to Assembly Language

Assembly language is a low-level programming language that communicates directly with a computer’s hardware. Unlike high-level languages like Python, C#, or Java, Assembly provides fine-grained control over the CPU and memory β€” perfect for operating system kernels, embedded systems, or situations where you need raw speed and direct hardware access.

Each Assembly instruction corresponds directly to a machine code operation that the processor executes. It's highly specific to each CPU architecture (like x86, ARM, or MIPS). Programmers often write Assembly when high performance is critical or when working on system-level projects like BIOS firmware, bootloaders, or device drivers.

πŸ’‘ Tip: Assembly can feel intimidating at first, but start by understanding how CPU registers and memory interact β€” that's 80% of the battle.
