The lowest level human readable language for a particular hardware platform. Assembly language mirrors machine language but uses familiar English-like words. Assembly language for one microprocessor architecture will differ significantly from assembly language for another microprocessor architecture. For example, the assembly of your phone, running an ARM microprocessor, will be different from the assembly language of your desktop computer, running an x86-64 microprocessor.
