At the time, the only out we had in order to meet contract requirements
was to write a combination of assembly code, compiled code, and
horrors,
machine code. If that wasn't bad enough, we then had to "disassemble"
the machine code to see if there was a way to duplicate it at the
highest level possible, without writing compiler extensions.
What's machine code (as opposed to assembly code) in this context? How
did you write it?

schools] and be taught English as it should be, and not as it is, spoken.)
