The university I attend in the United States has a few courses that teach Assembly: Computer Architecture, Systems Programming, & Operating Systems. This certainly doesn't mean that Assembly is the preferred language of any of the students that take these courses. It just equips them with the knowledge of the underlying architecture and the ability to interact directly with it. C is certainly much more popular. Here are two links to online resources for Assembly programming: http://programming-motherfucker.com/become.html#Assembly Language http://www.tutorialspoint.com/assembly_programming/ On Tue, Oct 21, 2014 at 9:57 AM, fran=C3=A7ai s wrot= e: > In FreeBSD Forums, the moderator Phoenix also said that ' very few > people write directly in assembly, It's the whole point to having C.
