After having programmed in both Java and C for sometime, I’ve realised that while Java is far easier to code, program­ming in C is more satis­fying — at the end of the day, it feels as if I’ve actually got some work done.

One inter­esting aspect of writing C code is trying to maximize function­ality with a minimum amount of code. On a site like TopCoder, C (actually C++) programs to solve compli­cated problems are often incred­ibly small.
