Assembly 6502 to be specific because it one of those made for humans and low-level enough.
You can learn for fun or just to know better,as it easy to learn with a little knowledge of hexadecimals.

I am interested to learn it

I don't think you know what your saying if you say assembly language is simply.


Remember you are talking about row code

I know,but the concept is not hard all.

what do you know about hexadecimals?
It no problem if you don't.

I am in

Learn assembly for the sake of passion, money, necessity. if you're doing it for fun, just know you will quit soon.

if you're doing it for fun only , just know you will quit soon.

Since it for fun and not for production,it ok.

Why learn assembly language when u can learn C or C++ that will make code development easy for you. Why use a 6502 microcontroller that is not common in this part of the world when u can use Atmega or Arduino, PIC, ARM and the likes That has much online support.

I stand to be corrected, Telling people that assembly language is easy to learn is not the whole truth. U need much knowledge of hexadecimal, and binary to be able to work with assembly language. Its C or C++ that needs little Knowledge of hex.

By God's grace I started my Embedeed systems career about 10 years ago, i learnt with assembly language for about 2 years, but when i switched to C, my life never remained the same till now. I now write codes of about 5,000 lines.... Now imagine if i am to write that in assembly language.

If you feel assembly language is better than high-level language like C, post your points here and let's argue it out.

You sound very knowledgeable and informed. Do you have any public portfolio ? just asking tho.

I can't say it better but it actually depends on what you want to achieve.
Having a good knowledge of assembly makes you a better C programmer.

I am an electronics engineer, embedded systems hobbyist and a part time electronics project designer.

You can mail me on savotechng@gmail.com if u need my assistance.

I will agree with you If it were to be 10 years ago...

The advantages of assembly language u could talk about is having higher speed and saves ROM space.
And probably being able to explore all functions of the microcontroller that the C compliler have no support for.

Today, most microcontroller and C compiler have a good code optimisation and almost all functions are supported in updated version C compilers for PIC or Arduino. so even though using assembly have it own advantage, its disadvantages completely swallows up the advantage. Reason is:
1. If u need more speed, use microcontroller that supports higher speed and use your C language.
2. If u need more space, use microcontroller that has higher ROM and use your C language.

Technology is moving at fast rate and open source companies like Arduino and the rest have a C library for almost all modules and peripherals. Most companies that produce embedded systems modules and peripherals have a sample codes written in C.

Learning in assembly almost have no good compared to C or other high level language except the microcontroller you are using has no C compiler.

I salute your effort in wanting to enlighten people... I am just feeling like saying my mind too concerning it.
