I disagree.  One MAY want to learn C, eventually, IF one makes
substantial use of the "classic" Python (CPython) and wants to
extend it in C.  But in many cases one will be using other languages
for extensions -- Java for Jython, any language at all (that is able
to produce speedy in-process COM objects -- e.g. Eiffel should be
fine, or Delphi...) if one uses CPython but only on Windows.
