I wrote some games years ago using C programming language (1986). My original source code is lost, but I have the executables.<br />
<br />
How can I decompile the .exe back to C (or any other language if that's possible? doesn' it have to go back to the original language?) Is this also called reverse engineering?<br />
<br />
I was thinking these simple games would make great games for wireless phones with some updated tweaking.<br />
<br />
Thanks.<br />

Decompile C executable, Reverse Engineer

C is a general-purpose, imperative computer programming language, supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations. By design, C provides constructs that map efficiently to typical machine instructions, so it has found lasting use in applications that had formerly been coded in assembly language, including operating systems as well as various application software for computers ranging from supercomputers to embedded systems. It is distinct from C++ (which has its roots in C) and C#, and many later languages have borrowed directly or indirectly from C.
