I'm glad you like the tutorial. You'll just love number 2 :)
David (Mosley), I suggest you look over Section 2, Language Definition in
the manual from the very start. It explains the two types of data values in
Euphoria (atoms and sequences). That's the key to understanding Euphoria.
If you do not understand the concept on atoms and sequences it will be hard
for you to grasp the rest of the Euphoria statements. Read onwards after
this to understanding the assignment statement, if statement, while
statement and so forth.
The next thing you need to do is look at Euphoria programs. Robert and
Junko have included some very good demo programs in the DEMO directory.
That's where I got my intial handle on Euphoria. I modified the LANGWAR
program a lot to give myself more weapons power, and then to change the
size of the galaxy to something larger or smaller. You may also look over
the demo programs included in "A Beginner's Guide To Euphoria". They are
not as full-featured as Robert's programs, but they do show simple examples
of Euphoria usage in various areas. Why not make copies of these programs
and then try to modify them?
Practice is the best way. Make your own small programs and then build on
them by adding enhancements. You'll be learning how to make programs in a
modular style.
Good luck and write back here if you need help from any of us. We got some
excellent programmers here. :)
