i dont know when to use integer type instead of atom.
now i mostly use it just as boolean (when 0 or 1)
do i gain a lot of speed using integer instead of atom?
cause i want my programs to be fast.
example: can a string be longer than maximum integer number
at which biggest number will integer type cause error, when atom =
wouldnt?=20

May I suggest reading the Euphoria Reference Manual?  Section 2 (Language
Definition) will answer all of those questions and more.
