I=B4m looking for examples of use of the language in education, in order to=

reinforce my position. Anybody?
Thanks.

It was the first language I learned... I moved on to C++ and Java and
ASM and all manner of other awful things...

It's an excellent language for teaching programming paradigms, like
variables, arrays, functions/procedures, etc.

Unfortunately, I don't know an example other than Prof. Kuntz' courses
at the Mathematics Department of the Monmouth University (New Jersey),
which I already reported last year.

With Euphoria, your students would have tool at hand that is part of the
solution, rather than part of the problem. smile

I wish you good luck with your plan!
