 		 #135279 - I agree
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Having programmed in both assembly and 'C' extensively, I'd say any given developer is probably going to introduce more errors in assembly language and that the chances of a compiler introducing a bug is a lot less than a developer introducing a bug in an assembly language program. That doesn't mean assembly shouldn't be used, but I can understand an inclination away from assembly language to easier-to-read and verify 'C'.

Regards,
Craig Steiner
