Assembly language

Assembly language is the source code which is written to be translated by an assembler into the binary executable program which is then run to produce the desired results.

Programs written in assembly are of three types:

• Directly written assembly language files created by someone;
• Inline assembly language which is included as part of a Pascal source code file which was created by someone; and
• Assembly language output of the FPC Pascal Compiler which was automatically generated from the Pascal source code supplied to the compiler.
