At the end of the day, you need to be able to read and understand the
Minimum Working Example ("MWE") code in the datasheets. And, well,
that's going to be C.

If you don't know enough programming in general to parse that MWE code,
you're going to have a real hard time rewriting that into the
"better(tm)" language.

Once you can read the MWE in the datasheet, well, then by all means go
off to something else if you want to.
