How to run yasm in ubuntu?

I recently have installed YASM but I cannot find any yasm in PC.

Also, it was written that it would through terminal. However, I have no idea what it was about.

Open terminal and type:

yasm --help

YASM consists of the yasm command, libyasm, the core backend library, and a large number of modules. Currently, libyasm and the loadable modules are statically built into the yasm executable.

Yes it does. Though parts of the help section might have been included into the answer to make it a good answer ;) – Rinzwind Aug 18 '15 at 09:39
@AndreaCorbellini `yasm --help` and `yasm -help` is the same in **this** case. – A.B. Aug 18 '15 at 10:06

yasm – The Yasm Modular Assembler

First, open a terminal via Ctrl+Alt+T or search in Unity Dash/GNOME Activities for Terminal

Now you can find the binary (using the terminal) via

which yasm

Sample output

/usr/bin/yasm

Yasm has no frontend or a desktop file and therefore there is no entry in your Unity Dash, GNOME Activities and so on.

Usage

yasm foo

where foo contains some assembler code. The command creates a file foo.o. Make it executable with

chmod +x foo.o

and run with

./foo.o

More infos via

man yasm
