Omg batch is like 19th century |

@loleris
Pretty much, yes.

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

You kids and your Operating System specific functions. I still print each character to the screen via hardware interrupts. |

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. |
|

If any of you batch me in the face, I would much prefer it |

Assembly isn't that hard if you take your time to learn it.

Yes, it really isn't. |

Assembly doesn't seem like my type, sorry. |

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.

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? |
