Of course but there's machine code in photoshop. It started out as C or C++ or maybe something else. I've had to deal with naive ports from one OS to another and explain why some supposedly portable code was a very bad idea in MS Windows, when it worked just fine in XWindows under Unix. I get very tired of these explanations. Sometimes it's explaining how the memory manager works in C, which is really quite primitive, or the difference in threading models. Oh and by the way you didn't have to ever write assembly language to write to MS Windows it was C from the version 1.0, though sometimes you could speed things up considerably with a bit of judicious assembler.

i doubt there is any assembly language code in Photoshop. unless you are writing device drivers, and even then it's not required anymore, you have not had to use assembly language to write Windows applications since Windows 2.0.

Obviously you've never used assembler. You guys are talking past each other, and unfortunately you don't have a clue about what Graywolf is talking about. (I think he's being a bit pedantic but...).
