Cool Ian!
This is great feedback, which I plan to use to improve the echo program. I'm just learning (on my own), and I figured I would just post my progress and I would get some feedback; it worked!
echo is far from finished, and it's safe to say "I don't know what the hell I'm doing", but hey, I gotta start somewhere.
That's the spirit Kelsey! keep it up.
Serious answer: Because many developers regard assembly as some sort deep magic only understood by elder gods.
This, of course, comes from some vague (and not entirely correct) understanding of "assembly" running beneath everything else, and thus being fundamental, yet not immediately useful to a large category of developers today. Hence it seems important but archaic. Archaic + difficult = elder knowledge.
Cool ! perfect explanation.
