To each his own. But it seems to me that it would be a major overload on a
PIC processor--kind of like using a mouse to pull a sled.
Same goes for Ada, C++, and any real high level language. C is in effect a
mid-level, general-purpose assembly language so works ok. Pascal or compiled
Basic might also work, but I'd avoid any language that requires huge overhead
such as a JVM.
