Yes, but what is so nice about assembler is that you almost never get any
complaints from the compiler, which is VERY annoying in C and Pascal.
Basically, I think that C is an abbreviation of Pascal ( begin and end
became { and }, and so on... ). I would NOT recommend to start in Pascal,
because it gives you nothing but a lot of typing.
