title: Algorithms that can only be written in assembly
body: <p><em>Any algorithm you can implement in a HLL you can implement in assembly. On the other hand, there are many algorithms you can implement in assembly which you cannot implement in a HLL.</em> - Randall Hyde</p>
  
  <p>I found this statement in the forward to a book on assembly. The book is here: <a href="https://courses.engr.illinois.edu/ece390/books/artofasm/fwd/fwd.html#109" rel="nofollow">https://courses.engr.illinois.edu/ece390/books/artofasm/fwd/fwd.html#109</a></p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know an example of this type of algorithm? </p>
