Because C can be either a low-level language or a high-level language, =20
as the moment requires.

Well, the current example wants
    M =3D (f0 * 2^32)/fc
Where f0 and fc are 32 bit numbers (some constant, some not.)  That's =20
not particularly a line that I'd like to translate into assembler.  (I =20
suppose it depends on how much access you have to a good set of =20
libraries...)  (And then C will easily go low-level and let you =20
separate the bytes efficiently (one way or another), supporting my =20
first statement.)
