assembler
Assembler is a language programmers use that is very similar to machine language. The difficultly learning it are all the pseudo-ops which do not correspond to machine language instructions. They control how the assembler generates object files and symbol tables.

Java compiles to byte code, the machine language for a Java-optimised CPU. Most of the time you don’t have such a CPU, so you either interpret it, or compile it to native code, or hotspot it.
