As wonderful as it is to have your own pet language and celebrate our
differences, you should really learn C. I mean, almost every serious programming
project is done in C. If you learn it now, and write a chess program in it,
you're going to be doing that much better than the average Joe who learns C in a
class.

Cheers,
Tom
