Disassembler

A disassembler is a piece of software that translates machine code into its assembly language. Since there is always a one-to-one correspondance between a machine code instruction and an assembly langauge instruction, it's quite easy to turn the former into the latter, but it's very difficult to translate machine code into a high-level language like C.

Automated disassembly is still rather inaccurate, because no disassembler can distinguish between code and data. Analyzing disassemblers mitigate this problem somewhat, but the best way to get a proper disassembly is with an interactive disassembler like this one.

There are disassemblers and assemblers available for the Motorola 68000 processor.
