Assembly Language ( compile )

Can someone explain how to compile assembly language code. I made my first assembly language code, but don't know how to run it. I know i can debug with gdb, but is there any way to just compile it and get the answer like in C and java compilers.

You need to assemble it:

as your_prog.s -o your_prog.o

And then link it:

ld your_prog.o -o your_prog

You can then run it with ./your_prog

Assembly language programs are assembled by an assembler just like C programs are compiled into object code by a compiler...for which mpu are you writing this assembly code.
