Right. Becuase no one ever learned C as a first language ever, and those that paradoxically did were worse programmers for it!
- n_plus_1_acc 2y agoAre you saying people who learned C as their first programming language are better programmers or worse?
- lelanthran 2y ago> Are you saying people who learned C as their first programming language are better programmers or worse? That's both a false dichotomy and irrelevant as well. My message is "There are multiple excellent (even legendary) developers in the short history of our field that learned programming in C. There are many more who primarily used C". This refutes your point completely.
