i want to know what is the role of graphics in c
is it ok to spend a lot of time on learning c graphic or to start the
new language like JAVA.

Thanks in advance.

One major difference is that graphics can be done portably in Java,
but not in C. comp.lang.c is a newsgroup about portable C, so it won't
be able to help with graphics questions (a newsgroup suited to your
platform might be more helpful); however, for high-performance
graphics applications using mostly-portable C with some nonportable
bits for the graphics may still be a good idea.
