Assembly Language and Machine Code

Machine Code
- The language that the computer can understand, that uses different binary digits to stand for different instructions and locations.

Assembly Language
- a basic language which uses mnemonics to stand for instructions and labels to represent data locations. Assembly language has a one-to-one language with machine code. It is translated by the assembler.

Assembler
