>>I respect the ability to learn and use Assembler too. I don't think its a question of respect. There cannot be a good programer if he hasn't learn some assembly some time in his life. Only machine language will teach you how a machine works, and this is an essential basis in order to understand how to optimize code. If you only learn high level languages, you're missing the essentials.
Its like flying an airplane without having elementary basics in aerodynamics. I started my career on a machine that had 56k memory, at 1 MHz, I can tell you Assembler was a must, even if we had FORTRAN at that time. Now, when I hear yellow feet talking about OOP technology that "helps RE-use code", it makes me laugh ;-)) -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
