1. Learning Euphoria ... sequence found inside string ???
Hi,
This does NOT work ............
sequence found inside string
include file.e
include get.e
sequence d
atom w
d=dir(current_dir())
printf(1,"%s\n",{d})
w=wait_key()
yet this one does work !!!
include file.e
include get.e
sequence d
atom w
d=dir(current_dir())
for i = 1 to length(d) do
printf(1,"%s\n",d[i])
end for
w=wait_key()
what does .... sequence inside mean ???
OR where to look !!!
I cannot find it.
getting frustrated with simplicities !!
OH WOE !!

d is now a multi-level sequence. That is, there are sequences inside
sequences... for example:
{ 1, 2, "Sequence 1", 4, "Sequence 2", "etc." }
printf()'s "%s" cannot output that kind of sequence. It expects "flat"
sequences of integers only.
printf(1, "%s", { "This is okay." } )
printf(1, "%s", { { "This is not.", "Because it has embedded sequences." } } )

This works because you've sent a sequence element from d to printf(). The
element d[i] always contains a flat sequence (or atom).

This would work (but not as expected) if you wrote it as
printf(1,"%s\n",d)

Hello les,
sequence found inside string line 3 of myprog.ex
This is a common error that I get all the time.
To fix it. Go to that line and change d to d[1].
If you still get it change to d[1][1].
In other words puts(1,d) --dosen't work
puts(1,d[1]) --dosen't work --keep doing this untill it works
puts(1,d[1][1]-- works
Once it does work and prints something you will see where your error is.
Another example:
sequence names
names=("les","don","ccris"}
puts(1,names}--sequence found inside string error
puts(1,names[1]-- prints les
Oh I see, I have to identify each element of the sequence with a number.
