Assembly language is the second generation programming language that has almost similar structure and set of commands as machine language. Instead of using numbers as in a machine language, assembly language use words or names in English forms and also symbols. The programs that have been written using words, names and symbols assembly language are converted to machine language using an assembler. A computer only understand machine code languages and hence we need an assembler that can convert the assembly level language to machine language, which helps to a computer gets the instruction and responds quickly.
The main advantage of this language is that it is written only a single type of CPU and does not run on another CPU. But its speed makes it the most used low level language till today which is used by many programmers.
