The infamous quote goes "The C language combines all the power of assembly language with all the ease-of-use of assembly language."

  Do you have a specific example? I wrote programs in Z80, AVR, x86/amd64 and MIPS assembly. In my experience writing C is MUCH easier.

    But C allows for just as much foot-shooting, thus the joke. (The quote is meant to be humorous)
