"blagh I don't use "cout" I use "system("echo");" "it's derived from a language called batch" "you've probably never heard of it"

no a C++ programmer would probably send you malware because they don't like how you're using "system"

Assembly is not fun, it is like someone punching you in the face.

@kubuto2: There will be someone somewhere who likes being punched in the face.

Assembly isn't that hard if you take your time to learn it. prntscr.com/2h76ui

What is the point in Assembly? It's unlikely one will find oneself using it in a professional job- one would more likely use C, C++, java and other C-stemmed languages like C# and objective C (I don't doubt one may even find oneself using python) for software, and php, html, or even SQL for websites and databases. I am well aware Assembly is a very low-level language (as it was used a great deal in really old computer systems like the BBC-2 in late seventies/early eighties), but isn't this rather redundant nowadays when C-stemmed languages offer pretty much everything one will need for software development?

@AbsoluteLOL Rather than internet-sighing at me, why not elaborate why you feel this internet-emotion?

If you need to do low level stuff, of have an incredible space limit, assembly is your golden ticket.

I can list a reason why thou shalt ASM instead of C(GNU). A typical operation lasts about 3x more than in ASM. EOS db 0x00 ;End of String Marker

Good compilers will be faster than hand-done assembly (for a reasonably big project of course). Why? The optimizations they do are incredible.

@chickenman158 For the work I do, I don't think I'd ever find myself using assembly. I don't really do incredibly low-level stuff. I think the deepest I've ever gone is copy + pasting opengl source code into my C++ compiler as oppose to using a game engine. So, say I were to build an operating system (although I doubt I ever will), assembly is a good choice?
