Assembly Language (ASM) is not included in SoloLearn's self-paced courses. Why?

Question

Assembly programming language is still being taught to us in the university and yet some people say that it is already a "dead language".

Answer 1

I think you don't need the language in common programming. Assembly is important for microchips and very hardware near taks. You need assembly as foundation for higher programming languages. Assembly is for example used in OS's, microchips and also in hardware drivers. It's nice to know but unimportant if you do not program in the hardware area.

Answer 2

Their are way too many versions of assembly. You have many versions or different architectures, OSes, compilers, syntax, etc. It's not at all standard.
