Techopedia Explains Disassembler
A disassembler is used to translate machine code into a human readable format. Reading disassembled code is more complex than original source code because disassembled code lacks programmer comments and annotations.
A major disassembling issue is differentiating code and data, which are shown in the same way in current machines.
