A final note, I learned C in a senior level hardware design course. In one three
month course we: chose a CPU, decided the peripheral chip for its bus, wrote a
design doc, wire wrapped the board, wrote the firmware in "C", burned EPROM's
_many_ times and finally presented the working prototype to the rest of the class.
I was taking the hardware mindset towards C and it was very intuitive from that
perspective.
