C# programmer - necessary to learn C or C++?
- by Kurresmack
Hey,
I have been programming now for a couple of years. But never any low level language.
I started off with some java and some VB. Then I went over to VB.NET and now for a while I have been writing C#.
As you see, I have never written any low level language where I had to deal with memory management.
Is this something I should do, like a route of passage that every programmer should go through?
I am a bit keen on trying to perhaps writing in assembler directly. This would suit me personally good as I have 2 parents that have been writing assembler for ages.
Is it necessary for a professional programmer these days to know how to manually manage memory?
