Reading C code

[whiterhino123]

just wanted to do this thread an update

i found this game being remade in javascript

i cant really read C and i didnt understand anything looking at angbands github (very new to programming) but I do know javascript best and things are making more sense

https://github.com/jcheatham/angband.js/tree/master/angband

should i be able to read C if I can pretty much read this javascript?

C has pointers, as javascript does not. It is strongly typed, except you can force casts between anything. It also has far more primitive libraries. But yeah, you should be able to read it, once you figure out the type system and the pointers.
