1. New project?
Hey guys I almost have my Black Jack game done. And I was just thinking
of my next project. From a beginers point of view do you think checkers
would be too hard or should I try something esle maybe another card game
only more complicated. I just wanted an experienced programmers opinion
or anyones opinion for that matter. You guys seem to have it together
and care about the new people to Euphoria and programming thanks for all
your help. Later.

Surprise, surprise, checkers is actually more computationally intensive
than chess. Unless you are willing to write highly optimized assembler
or C routines for the move calculation...this would only be a rough demo.
Euphoria is appropriate for many things, but this doesn't happen to be
one of them. That is no knock on Euphoria...all those highly optimized
routines written for super-computers still can't beat top checker players.
