I'm glad "A Beginner's Guide To Euphoria" helped you. However, as I previously mentioned on my web page and in the documentation, the guide is for those who have never programmed in Euphoria (or in any other language) before. It's not for those who expect to become proficent in the language. This is because it does not go that deeply in studying the language. Had I been more in depth, I would have risked confusing and overwhelming the new user. All I did was target about 80% of the language set, of which I felt one must know in order to write first smaller and then more complex programs. There's a text file in Euphoria's DOC directory called WHAT2DO.DOC that I feel is a great guideline that will show you how, as you say, to "really learn the language". It recommends the steps required to become more comfortable in using Euphoria, some of which including studying the reference manual, and first running and then modifying some of the supplied programs to see what happens. Good luck in learning Euphoria! :) David Gay http://www.interlog.com/~moggie/euphoria.htm "A Beginner's Guide To Euphoria"

I program in C, but love Euphoria. Because Euphoria is what it is, I've seen people right things, and learn things, quicker than they have in any other language. In some cases, people are programming in Euphoria who wouldn't have programmed in any other language. One thing I do like about Euphoria is the ability to use assembler code I create for faster routines...in that case it is very flexible. Use Euphoria as the back bone, and bring in tons of assembler routines for the demanding stuff.
