Line 7:
Machine language is tedious and difficult for humans to program in directly, so if the abstraction given by a higher-level [[programming language]] is not desired, an [[assembly language]] is used. Here, [[mnemonic]] instructions are used that correspond to the opcode and operand specifications of the machine language instructions generated. This gives a greater level of readability and comprehensibility than working with machine language operations directly, while still giving accurate control of the machine language generated. A program called an [[assembler]] transforms assembly language into machine code.
