Alright. Sorry if this wasn't what you were looking for, and this is probably a bit late, but I suggest you use Python (much easier to learn) first, or C++ (a lot faster to program in and a bit faster to run, as well as giving you more control) as chiro recommended.
 
okay, no it's not too late. :) going to start lookin' at it over the weekend when i have some extra time to play with.

After learning it through C, what would be the biggest issue when trying to implement the same data...
