Why do you need a trick to do something so simple, such as monitoring a stack? - Set/Reset a boolean and that's all.

The stack example is there because it is simple. There are already three complete solutions to stacks for Euphoria.

Flags are maybe not so simple!

  • I would need an extra variable for each stack. The example works on any number of stacks.
    • How do I put that variable into a sequence representing a stack?
    • Or, what do I do with a bunch of global boolean variables? How do I name them? How do I remember to use them?

Arguments have to be done with code not opinions.

A "trick" is an exploration of the limits of Euphoria for me.

What other languages do is not always better. That is the *only* reason to use Euphoria.

There is always something to be learned from Other_Language. Sometimes Other_Language only shows me that Euphoria will work better for me, sometimes I learn something powerful.
