To be just a little pedantic, C hasn't necessarily killed Assembly as much the necessity of knowing it to program at the low level. In short, C compilers have become efficient enough to negate the need to write in Assembly directly due to, at the very least, being much more human readable, though not in every case (i.e. certain optimizations).
