What is the difference between assembly language and machine language?

Answer 1

Assembly language is a more human readable view of machine language. Instead of representing the machine language as numbers, the instructions and registers are given names (typically abbreviated words, or mnemonics, eg ld means "load"). Unlike a high level language, assembler is very close to the machine language.

The readability of Assembly Language is very high as it is written in English which is understandable by human beings.

The readability of Machine Language is less as compared to Assembly Language because it is written in the form of binary code which normal human being cannot understand. But this is the actual language of computer.
