What is machine Level Language ?

  1. Machine code is the only language a microprocessor can process directly without a previous transformation.
  2. Currently, Programmers never write programs directly in machine code, because it requires attention to numerous details which a high-level language would handle automatically.
  3. Low Level Language Requires memorizing or looking up numerical codes for every instruction that is used.
  4. For this reason, second generation programming languages provide one abstraction level on top of the machine code.

Example: A function in 32-bit x86 machine code to calculate the nth Fibonacci number :

8B542408 83FA0077 06B80000 0000C383
FA027706 B8010000 00C353BB 01000000
B9010000 008D0419 83FA0376 078BD98B
