If we're talking about old-school C language (as opposed to C++ or C# or whatever), then I imagine many young programmers, no matter what language, would have homicidal tendencies trying to learn C. ;-)

Was reading a thread on Slashdot about "ageism" in programmer, and the discussion turned to the need to know different languages... Saw this exchange that amused me: (http://developers.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=1771012 <http://developers.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=1771012&cid=33416174> &cid=33416174) "... if your first language was cold fusion and it is all you have done for the last 12 years, you may have a difficult time switching to C" "... if that's the case, you have bigger problems, not the least of which being uncontrollable, homicidal tendencies" "... Not to mention the twitching" Billy Cravens -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "Houston ColdFusion Users' Group" discussion list.
