If so, why? Is it the fastest? Is it suitable for new-comers to the C language, or even newbies to programming in general? I know a bit of QBasic, but that's about it, so should I be learning something other than C, or is C the way to go? Well, that's about it. Thanks (in advance;-) for your time and help! Jordan Ellis
