Why?

C/C++ is/are one of the most common programming languages in existence today, and I would call C one of the most fundamental languages of computer programming.

What language would you suggest?
-It has to be able to be compiled or it's interpreter/VM must be able to be compiled for VxWorks
-The resulting code including the interpreter/VM must be very memory-small
-It has to be an easily accessible language (IDE's and tools for it must be free or donated, etc.)
