"… all the bugs are YOURS!" ..unless, of course, there's a bug in the assembler. 🙂 "Isn't it LOGICAL to speak the language of the computer instead of learning another language that is ultimately translated to machine language anyway?" Not necessarily. For example, I can program in Java, and it works cross platform immediately. It works on my Solaris SPARCstation, and it runs on Windows 95. Two completely different architectures, no recompile of the Java code I wrote. There are some cases where it makes sense to program in assembler, there are many more where it does not.
