I'm a small business programmer. I love solving tough problems with Python and PHP. If you like what you're seeing, you should probably follow me here on dev.to and then checkout my blog.
There are "good" programmers who know C and there are "bad" programmers who know C. There are also "good" programmers who don't know C (or any other low level language).
To make your case you'd have to take a group of "bad" programmers break them into groups and run experiments on each group. And then come up with the result that the only way to turn them into "good" programmers was for them to learn C (all other treatments failed). If that turned it to be true, I'd be very suprised.
I know there are a lot of "bad" programmers out there but I think their level of C knowledge is a non-casual factor. Do you know of research that suggests otherwise?
