Lesson 6

• What is one reason programmers use Assembly Language?

  Execution speed is critical
• Why is Assembly Language considered more efficient than high-level languages?

  It generally results in smaller executable programs
• What is a benefit of using Assembly Language regarding translation time?

  Requires less time for translation into machine code
• What is a disadvantage of using Assembly Language related to machine dependency?

  Programs may not run on different hardware
• What are the challenges associated with writing in Assembly Language?

  It is long, tedious, and difficult to maintain
• Why might Assembly Language code be difficult to understand and modify?

  It can be fairly difficult to maintain
• What is a common use case for Assembly Language?

  Boot strap loader development
• How does Assembly Language compare to high-level languages in terms of executable size?

  Assembly Language results in smaller executable programs
• What is the trade-off when choosing to use Assembly Language over high-level languages?

  Faster execution versus longer development time
