 Assembly is also OS-specific, since it depends on [syscalls](syscall.md) to do anything useful and things like the program
 entrypoint differ between operating systems.
 
-## Examples (x86-64 assembly, Linux)
+An assembler program is then converted into machine code by an *assembler*. Some assemblers are gas, the assembler of the [GNU](gnu.md)
+project which supports multiple architecures and [NASM](https://www.nasm.us/), a popular x86-only assembler.

 ```nasm
 default rel                 ; tell the assembler to use RIP-relative addressing
                             ; instead of absolute memory addresses
