1. Statement v. Library Routine in Euphoria

Hi all,

A quick question on statements and routines in Euphoria.

I come from the QBasic/BASIC world, where every line was a statement. =

Reading the Euphoria documentation, I formulate this theory on statements=

and library routines in Euphoria.  Could someone please tell me if I'm
correct?

There are really only a small number of statements, such as IF, ELSEIF,
FOR, INCLUDE, and such.  These "statements" are generally used to control=

the program itself.

Most of Euphoria is really routine-based.  Whereas BASIC uses a PRINT
"statement" to display stuff, Euphoria calls it a routine.  IS this
interpretation right?

Seems right, except for the ? statement, which can display
things.
