I just had to reply to this.......
Are you sure you're a newbie?
That name's very, very familiar. In fact, I saw it just last night.
Anyone care to take a guess?

<whew!> I thought maybe you meant "yeast," for which I'd still need an
explanation, or "seas," yet another explanation, or "years" or "yees"
(explain that one!).

Why do you suspect it is Euman?

Look at the headers. While it's possible to spoof a lot of the lines, it's very 
difficult to spoof them all.

Ahhh, so that's why we can't use executable code to assign some constants
and not others, and why we can't mix executable code and variable
declarations outside of routines. Its all so clear now.

Well, lets see what happens with OpenEu, if it goes anywhere. I suspect 
RobC is close to losing the chance to hire these guys, and add useful 
features to Eu, like i suggested he do 2 or 3 yrs ago.

15. Hello

Hello all,

Just joined and already here is my first bozo question:

I notice there is no float() function.
Am I right in assuming that is the only distinction between the atom()
and integer() functions? I tested it and it seems to be true.
integer('a') returns true as I kind of expected. (& accept to be true)

Just being curious.

Pete

Many thanks, informative but unfortunately not quite what I meant:
I shud'a ritten " *only* difference" which was the intrigue I had ;)

- I assume the values for float are entirely of your own making and
possibly from C or somesuch's ideas of float. (double==refman)

17. Hello

Hey everyone, I highly doubt anyone knows or remembers me, but about
five years ago, I was into the computer programming scene and all,
but it has been a while since I've done anything related to programming.
For the past five years, I served in the U.S. Navy, yet during those five
years, due to lack of time, I haven't been able to keep up with my skills,
so everything I used to know, I forgot, and the little I do remember,
has become obsolete, due to the constant change of technology.  However,
now that I'm out, I've been wanting to get back into programming, even if
I have to re-learn everything from scratch.

Back before I joined the service, I made two minor contributions to the
Euphoria community, one was when I suggested that the message_box() function
use GetActiveWindow(), and the other was when I released a set of DLL linkage
routines.  I was 16 at the time, and back then, it was nothing to me, but
looking over the code now, has me thinking "I wrote THAT?"

Now that I have more time to devote to getting back to the level I once
was on, I plan on doing so.  I'm choosing Euphoria to start in helping me
re-teach myself, due to its portability, power, and ease of use.

Anyways, thank you for your time if you've read this.

Hello Austin, 

I don't remember you but if you just did 5years in the Navy stay in there or
  re-up. Don't make the mistake I did, quiting the Air Force after 4 yrs.

  If you were 16 when you joined you will be 36 when you retire.
Plenty of time to start your computer career (with retirement pay and full
benifits). That last 15 yrs. will go by very quickly (believe me).

Hello

Looking back now, I agree w/ Don Cole. If I had stayed in the U.S Navy
myself, I would be able to retire within the next 7mnths (full benefits)
and almost all major (paying companies) hire retired military much 
faster than they would for you at this point. You still have time to 
reconsider and even get a change into a career you really want such
an example "Operation Specialist" in 'A' school learn to program
and in Pensacola, Fla. they have a base just for "cryptography 
education".

My $0.04 (inflation) do yourself a huge favor and go back to wearing 
that fantastic uniform and retire....
I wish more people had suggested the same to me once I
got out. I was so tired of the politics at the time. I truly didn't 
understand that even in Corporate America there are just as much
if not more politics, brown-noses, ill-educated a'-holes etc.

May the Sun shine upon your face with the wind at your back!

Could it be that you have no idea that its a team effort to provide
the very freedoms we in the U.S enjoy...

One of the most respectable things a man or woman can do is give their
life in the defense of a Great Nation...

I don't know of any enlisted or commissioned military person who is a
conscientious objector or pacifist...(past, present or future)
