I've actually learned a bit of asm before learning C, cause I wanted to better understand what was going on on the lower level (forgot too much of it by now). If you alread know asm it's really easy to learn C, very small syntax and very efficient, you'll immediately understand concepts like pointers and registers that others learning C have big trouble with. It also makes development a lot faster.
It's a complete waste if you don't learn C now! :)


I agree. I programmed my biggest Amiga project in 68k. Coming back to that source 5 years later was major brain twist. I converted it to ANSI C and it is so much easier to see what is happening. OK the code generated is bigger and a bit slower but I have an 060 and a hard drive now and not so worried about these things as in the good, old days.
