Hope not opening a war here, but C is definitely not for generating smaller
or faster or better code. It just increases the abstract layer so you can
concentrate on the algorithm more as opposed to the implementation itself.
In other words you can develop something in a shorter time with less
possibilities of errors. Also it is more likely you can find a library on
the net for something you would need, for example a FIR or IIR, so you do
not need to reinvent the wheel.
