This might sound trivial, but if I could go back in time and give myself one piece of advice, it would be to use a language other than C for Analysis of Algorit

This might sound trivial, but if I could go back in time and give myself one piece of advice, it would be to use a language other than C for Analysis of Algorithms. I didn't know C very well yet, and trying to learn the algorithms material whilst being distracted by implementation details was simply not worth it. I'd tell my younger self: you're going to screw yourself out of both a grade and understanding of fundamental material.
