Programmers might choose to work with machine language directly when:

  • ·         They need to write extremely optimized code for critical performance.
  • ·         There's a need to interface with hardware at a very low level that's not supported by higher-level languages.
  • ·         They're working on very resource-constrained devices where the overhead of a higher-level language is not acceptable.
  • ·         They're involved in writing firmware or operating system components where direct hardware manipulation is necessary.
  • ·         They're conducting research or experiments related to computer architecture and need to interact directly with the hardware.
