What exactly do you mean? Learn the basics? Become productive? Memorize the entire specification? I'd argue C isn't significantly faster at any of these than most other languages.

This is why english is a popular language. > I'd argue C isn't significantly faster at any of these than most other languages. Yes it is. It has a lot of flaws, but it's popular for all those other reasons.
