I would strongly recommend you start by programming a PC. When you make a 
mistake you will be able to use a debugger to help you track it down you 
will be able to quickly identify misunderstanding you have about the C 
language. You will be able to single step through code and quickly inspect 
any variables you modify or use in your calculations. Being able to catch 
a rogue pointer without your dev system going totaly dead will be 
invaluble.
