Assembly and Cpp

assembly is faster

it's low-level programming language, so it's compiled to machine language faster

than having to be compiled twice then to machine language like C++

@Astronemi yeah it's like that

@simple_x So when you write assembly your basically skipping the compilation step?

First of all, Assembly is faster than C++. 

Second, i'd like to correct some comments here.

The computer does not understand assembly.

Assembly is just an easy way to show instruction calls on the CPU, and each of those instructions have a binary code.

So you can't give the computer some assembly and expect it to understand, you need to compile it (yes, compile it :kekw:) in the form of an executable. However, it's much easier to compile assembly to an executable than compile C++ to an executable.

So don't expect to be able to run an assembly file by clicking on it.

Also, you could see Assembly as bytecode, but you can't compare it to something like Python bytecode or Lua bytecode. Also Assembly just needs to be compiled, which can be done pretty easily and even manually if it's a small program and the individual is very skilled. Python bytecode needs to be feeded to the Python interpreter, same with Lua, or it won't work. Also Lua Bytecode really isint human readable, assembly is more human readable.

I almost have 50 thread too
