    Run compilers interactively from your web browser and interact with the assembly

  • Doing so will allow you to empathize with malware authors and get an idea of what to expect when analysing their code. Also, it brings me to my second piece of advice: which is if you're writing in a language like C/C++, Golang, Delphi, or any language that compiles to a native binary for a target system, use a website like godbolt.org to compare and contrast the source code that you wrote and the assembly output. This will help you learn more assembly by comparing high level source code to lower-level machine instructions expressed in the mnemonics of an assembly language.
