   Depends - do you get paid by the hour ?  :-)

   In any case, Python isn't THAT much more verbose, and
   it's easier to understand. Yer 'C' code may be smaller,
   but ideally there's a LOT of comment lines .... even
   you won't understand half of it in a year or two.

   But, as said, I often split the diff and program
   in Pascal.
