Now days the definition of “low-level” programming is using a language
like C. Note also that the Pi, being a full Linux system, has access to
all the range of languages available in any major Linux distro. Maybe you
want to try C++ or D instead of C? Ada? Smalltalk? Really want to get your
hands dirty an old-style assembly language, for some vintage architecture
like the PDP-11? Apple II? Altair 8800? IBM 1401? Software emulators for
all of these are available.
Modern assembly/machine language is the way it is because it’s designed
for compilers to generate efficient code, not for humans to understand.
