High Level Assembly
open-in-new
<p>High-Level Assembly (HLA) is a <a href="/facts/High-level_assembler/dHf3WfvS">language</a> developed by <a href="/facts/Randall_Hyde/fW2cXPkV">Randall Hyde</a> that enables the use of higher-level language constructs to aid both novice and experienced assembly developers. It supports advanced <a href="/facts/Data_type/fcx5hgVL">data types</a> and <a href="/facts/Object-oriented_programming/TxNMEcao">object-oriented programming</a>. Its <a href="/facts/Syntax/6PxSV98p">syntax</a> is loosely based on several <a href="/facts/High-level_programming_language/smjECUhx">high-level programming languages</a> (HLLs), such as <a href="/facts/Pascal_(programming_language)/b3yvp8bF">Pascal</a>, <a href="/facts/Ada_(programming_language)/Y2yHel4l">Ada</a>, <a href="/facts/Modula-2/DFyUTdAq">Modula-2</a>, and <a href="/facts/C%252B%252B/Et0F2qn9">C++</a>, to facilitate the creation of readable assembly language programs and enable HLL programmers to learn HLA quickly. </p>
