I would save assembler for the speed critical components of your program, e.g. those parts that are computationally intensive. user interfaces (including graphical ones) spend most of their time idle awaiting input from the user. I do not know anything about graphical user interfaces apart from using them. Unless there is some major advantage to using a GUI (e.g. display of graphical data), I tend to code command line utilities. There are places for C++, and their are places for assembler (which should be left as a last resort) -- use the correct language for the job (sed/awk/perl for text processing, shell scripts scripts for programmes that mainly execute other programs, and C/C++/assembler for system programming or speed critical applications such as scientific mathematical simulations :) Ones (dis)like for a computer language should have no bearing on the choice of language(s) used. Perhaps your needs might be already met with the GNUplot package. Most Linux distributors include this package with their distributions. I am sure you can download this package from authoritive free software sources (e.g. GNU, sourceforge.net). The package called octave works on top of GNUplot, and serves as a computer algebra system. P.S. Have you cloned any humans yet?
