Why C++? Why not drop down even further into asm? Understanding stack logic and register processing brings one even closer to machine code than C right? ^_^


In fact, all programmers should learn some asm.  The reason to start with C is because there is only one C.  There are umpteen different kinds of asm for umpteen different CPU architectures.  C will still teach you the important aspects of "speaking computer" as well as aspects of programming languages.
