samson monyluak you don't need to study C language as you have choice to use inproved version of it named C++ here ++ is a increment operator that indicates the improved or enhanced version of it. So its better to learn C++ because it includes more futures like reuseablilty, object, classes or more. After learning c++ you must go for c# pronounced as C Sharp that has more futures than c++
