As far as I know, construction "atom X = 1" create Euphoria's integer. My program have many lines such as
atom X = 1 - Y -- where Y is always float number
So, Euphoria will be converted 1 (integer) to 1.0 (atom) each time, yes? How to optimize it? May be, "atom X = 1.0"?
Why do you need this optimized? You would have to have millions of lines like this for you to even notice the difference in execution speed.
If you really must 'optimize' it, try this ...
atom X = 1.0000000000001 - Y
but the difference is so tiny you'll not even notice it.
