#86199 - learning a language
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Raghu,

I often comment that "is it easy to learn a language, what is difficult is to learn to learn a language". While that is ment about languages like German, Dutch, Farsi etc. I think it can be applied to assembler, C etc as well.

So what did your customer get:
something that was structured and commented in a professional way, maybe with a few amateurish codelines. A parallel could be using 'and' in a '51 forgetting that bit instructions exist.

In relation to that as I often say "I do not give a hoot if a program works if it is maintainable" So did you customer get a "win" ABSOLUTELY.

Erik
