===Assembly languages===
Initially, [[machine code]] was the sole method of programming [[Computer|computers]]. [[Assembly language]] (ASM), introduced mnemonics to replace low-level instructions, making it one of the oldest programming languages still used today. Numerous [[Dialect|dialects]] and implementations exist, each tailored to a specific [[computer processor]] [[Instruction set architecture|architecture]]. Assembly languages are [[Low-level programming language|low-level]] and more challenging to use, as they are [[Programming language#Type system|untyped]] and rigid. For educational purposes, simplified dialects of assembly languages have been developed to make coding more accessible to beginners.
