I've been taking this assembly class in school and having much fun with it, and it has taught me a lot about the computer at a lower level. However I've still been trying to find places that I can use it in real life. Do any of you use it in real life for anything aside from microcontrollers that don't have a C compiler and such?
I had grabbed a few tutorials on inline assembly optimizations for c/c++, but from what I read now, most of those are obsoleted.
Is there really any reason for using ASM aside from C anymore when there is an option? Also any examples of what you still may use assembly for?
Cheers.
P.S. Hope this isn't the wrong category.
