The traditional form of recording machine code is assembly language. Its commands correspond directly to individual machine commands or sequences of commands. The syntax of an assembly language program is determined mainly by the instruction system of the specific processor and the directive system of the specific translator. For some platforms, there may be several kinds of assembly language syntax that are not compatible with each other. For example, the most popular assembly language syntaxes for Intel-compatible processors are Intel syntax and AT&T syntax. However, all existing types of assembly language syntax are primarily focused on easy readability by the computer, not the programmer. The system of symbolic macro commands of the processor presented in the article is a more clear form of representation of machine code, which promotes productivity when the programmer works with it, and also minimization of errors.
