Re:bring 'em up right...on Unix (Score 1)

i started learning C when i was 12, mainly because of the portability and the fact i had almost on limitations, i wanted to do everything. i started opening a free shell account to start being used with unix. unix is the system with better programming resources...i think it would be good for your kids to learn about the opensource... and if they want to make the system do something the way they want, just let them hack the kernel :) well, i'm now 14 and i learned assembly and c++.. but i never used them (except asm for optimizing some codes for speed) and i'm still learning new things about C. i think C is "medium dificulty"(c'mon, it's not _that_ hard), but the fact is that you almost don't need to learn new languages, because you have a different machine or want to do something your language doesn't let you to. i used to know a very simple-english C tutorial, but that grasps almost all the subjects on the language. i still have it on my hard drive, when i remember the url, i'll post it
