<human>:  In the AP Computer Science curriculum, when I was in high school, we had to learn assembly language. Is that still required?
<bot>: No, it’s not. Assembly is a low-level language, and it’s not used much anymore. Most of the code you write today is written in higher-level languages like C, C++, Java, and Python. Assembly language is a way of writing code in binary, which is a different way of writing code than the ones I use.
