C is a very tricky language, because a lot of constructs that work when naively translated to assembly (on common CPUs like x86 or ARM) are actually undefined behaviour.

This is always brought up when "difficulty" of C for teaching is discussed but it will basically never be an issue in a programming college course. It is a problem that doesn't exist.
