Any programmer should be thorough with basic fundamentals and once they master the fundamentals its not a big task to learn new languages. I strongly recommend C because it exposes programmers to certain details that improves his understanding on why certain things like garbage collection, object oriented programming etc. are needed (or atleast why they were invented).
