I found working in C gave me a solid foundation for how code lays things out in memory and how to do pointer operations, and what a cast does. With C++ and vtbls and 30 different types of casts Poke tongue | ;-P it muddies the water.

But because of my C experience it's relatively easy (except when .net makes it hard as above) to use P/Invoke and to marshal structures and stuff
Real programmers use butterflies
