I have to learn ASM anyway (to learn about buffer overflows and other related topics in the family of memory-related security). Would there be any advantage to learning Assembly first or would that just be an unneccessary headache?

Soon you will be glad to write in C.

Write in C ("Let it Be")

   When I find my code in tons of trouble,
   Friends and colleagues come to me,
   Speaking words of wisdom:
   "Write in C."

   As the deadline fast approaches,
   And bugs are all that I can see,
   Somewhere, someone whispers:
   "Write in C."

   Write in C, Write in C,
   Write in C, oh, Write in C.
   LOGO's dead and buried,
   Write in C.

   I used to write a lot of FORTRAN,
   For science it worked flawlessly.
   Try using it for graphics!
   Write in C.

   If you've just spent nearly 30 hours,
   Debugging some assembly,
   Soon you will be glad to
   Write in C.

   Write in C, Write in C,
   Write in C, yeah, Write in C.
   BASIC's not the answer.
   Write in C.

   Write in C, Write in C
   Write in C, oh, Write in C.
   Pascal won't quite cut it.
   Write in C.


Regards,
David
