 		 #171642 - Why is that "bad"?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Levente Trifonov said:
sadly, the education of the programming is so bad. We are using an old C based IDE

Do you think it's bad because it's 'C', or bad because it's "old" - or both?

Note that 'C' is still a very current language in this arena.

Note that the 8052 could also be considered "old"...

and I'm not very good in C

So now would be a good time to get good at it!

but I'm using qbasic for a long time

In what way is that superior to 'C' ?

QBASIC is also a very "old" system!

so I started to use BASCOM for my 8052 at home


'C' is certainly more of a "mainstream" language than BASCOM.
Are you sure that your time wouldn't be better spent in improving your 'C' skills?
