Which type of programming language requires a specific type of assembler to convert its instructions into machine code for execution on a particular type of CPU?
Assembly language is specifically designed to be processed by an assembler, which converts the assembly code into machine code that is tailored for a specific CPU architecture. This makes the code highly efficient, but also machine-dependent, distinguishing it from other high-level programming languages that are more general-purpose.
