I must disagree.  I mean, learning something hard and then learning
something easy is always a plausible solution, but inefficient.  This is
what I suggest:

1.  Read the reference manual.  If you can't stomach that, (I couldn't),
get David Gay's A Beginner's Guide to Euphoria 2.  Get through the first
nine chapters slowly.  Give yourself time to digest, and make sure you
understand it before moving on.  (I just wanted to steamroll, but I had t=
o
go back over it).

2.  Read the manual again.  It will be a ton easier.  Then, if you like t=
he
tutorial approach, go back to the tutorial.  I outgrew that, so I just
started writing.  With this list, and the library routine manual, I'm on =
my
way.
