>>So I'm back to putting display statements in the program just like I used to do with 8 bit Microsoft Basic!<< Isn't that great! 🙂 >>A good high level language allows you to think in terms of the problem you are trying to solve.<< Of course. This is the reason that I am not really “against high level languages''. I am against the use of HLL's by programmers making commercial programs if they didn't program the HLL themselves because of the errors. AND I am against HLL's altogether in many cases because of the speed disadvantage when compared to assembler. I see that people are apparently prepared to pay double for a computer with a speed difference of 20% so why not program in assembler and get programs that are two, three times faster than their C equivalents?
