Hello Bo - 

BS>> I enjoyed coding in assembler, because i wrote directly to

CA>> Coded in zeros and ones eh? 

BS> Nopes, if you don't know it, 

20+ years ago I wrote what became the defacto software UART
emulation for the Radio Shack Color Computer to allow it to do
telecom. It was written in ASM. :-) 

BS> a assembler is translation to machine code (0 and 1), one
BS> line of assembler code, is one machine instruction. 

No, one line of ASM can be several machine instructions, not
just one. 

BS> Somebody call assembler for Symbolic Machinecode. 

ASM is a language that must be interpreted for the machine, yes.
