I'm a big Pascal fan (mainly because that's what I used when learning structured programming). C is a bit harder to read because it uses more symbols and words (ie. { } vs BEGIN,END) If you do it right, C can look pretty structured (at least the source I've seen from fellow programmers looks readable). If you have a Pascal that lets you use Assembly right in the source (which kills any portability :-) -- then it can probably do everything C can... well, almost everything..
