Assembler: A type of computer program that interprets software programs written in assembly language into machine language, code, and instructions that can be executed by a computer. The assembler enables the translation of human-readable assembly language into the computer’s binary code. It is often used when direct hardware manipulation, maximum efficiency, or compact code size is required.
