>Main Benefit is that a code written by a user can run very fast,efficiently,and directly executed by the CPU
MACHINE LANGUAGE
>More difficult to learn than higher generations programming languages
and to edit if errors occur

>A programmer can read and write codes
>Must be converted into a machine readable form,a process called assembly to run it
>The language is specific to a particular processor family and environment
