1. append vs &
throughout my euphoria programming life, i've never really used or
given much thought to prepend() and append() because i could do
exactly the same thing with the & operator, but i read over some of
the euphoria documenation and noticed that it said prepend and append
were highly optimised in some situations, so i am wondering how much
of a difference in performance the following would make (btw s1 and
s2 are sequences, a1 is an atom):
s1 = s1 & {s2}
-- versus
s1 = append(s1,s2)
-- or
s1 = s1 & a1
-- versus
s1 = appen(s1,a1)
