>There's still a huge amount of development being done in C. I know, I do some of it! My point was more that 20 years ago in my experience you couldn't call yourself a coder if you didn't know some C. Nowadays I find that most novel coders know about it but can't really write it "fluently". Many people still know, study and even use it, but it's not quite as ubiquitous as it once was.
