I would say it's a little bit more:
You have to know the keywords and (basic) concepts, e.g. you really have

Well, based on my definition, that's easy to answer. Have you solved
problems using Python? If
By C being smaller than Python I did not mean the scope of C is lesser than
Python. I simply meant that the standard libraries are less in number compared
