Not at all. I'd definitely recommend doing networking code in Python. You can do basic TCP/IP sockets pretty much the same way in every language, but with high level languages like Python, you get extra facilities that C won't give - most notably, the urllib.request module [1]. Same goes for quite a few other high level protocols. Take the easy way out! ChrisA [1] https://docs.python.org/3/library/urllib.request.html -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
