- While agree with Meyer on this point, it's important to note that not all
- C programmers are bad hackers. Due to the low level aspects of C it is
- going to attract those who place project implementation above its logical
- side, those whom worship the computer, etc. But it also attracts
- programmers who practice good and even greaat analysis, design and
- implementation.
