Correct....

But as i said, the assemblerknowledge wasnt for to learn to make progams on the N900, it was only to get a grasp on pointers, integers float and such stuff that is used in C.
And as such it doesnt matter what assembler it is and how well you know it, it is only necessary with some basic knowledge of any assemblylanguage to get a great start in understanding C programming and avoid the problems C gives for anyone who dont have that knowledge.

But as a beginnerlanguage i still vote for Python (it is very powerful on the N900) and then when mastering the thinking behind programming in general , go over to languages with a lot more complex syntax like C.
