1. Newbie Questions

Greetings!

I need a little bit of help.

I need to add two sequence segments to make a single sequence (sting), I
know whot to do it in basic (ugh!).

Test$=A$(1)
Test$=Test$ + " "
Test&=Test + A&(2)

How do I do it in Euphoria?

Thanx!

Ralph

PS: I've owned Euphoria for a while now and have decided to start working
with it. I'm giving you all fair warning, I'll probably be asking alot of
dumb questions. ;)

It's really easy!
As you might know, a string is just a sequence of ASCII values in
Euphoria... so all sequence manipulations are allowed with "strings".
Example:
sequence A
sequence B
sequence C

A="Hello World!"
B="Goodbye World!"
C=A&B                   --Now C="Hello World!Goodbye World!"
C=A[1..5] & B[1..7]     --Now C="HelloGoodbye"

You see how simple it is?
If you're a Basic programmer, first think you must do is forget that
a STRING is a special Data Type. In Euphoria there're just ATOMS ans
SEQUENCES. If it's not clear this, please read the "Euphoria
Reference Manual", or ask me about what particulary subject you are
experiencing troubles.
