C is a language that can be used to develop both 'user
applications' and 'operating systems'. It allows you to have
access to the machine language itself if you so choose (inline
asm). Most of the unix operating system is written in C. It is
a great language to start with (IMHO) because it contains the
basic concepts of computer programming. As well as giving you
a feel for what actually goes on in the machine itself. Higher
level languages abstract you from the machine, usually (again
IMHO) focusing more on the rapid development of Applications.
Remembering that C++ was originally developed as C with
classes, learning C is (again IMHO) almost a pre-requisite for
learning C++.
