I'm ready to buy, tell me how. Bye Art

You should buy it, but in the meantime you can download it from the
Official Euphoria Homepage, and already use it.

Hi Art,

I really appreciate what you did in testing my code against that by Jeff
Zeitlin. He has send me a note that he has seen my point and is going to
update his code along the lines I suggested. But there is still one thing
that keeps me wondering: can you, or maybe somebody else, explain the
differences in speed when testing for '<, >, <=, >= and ='  ?
Could this be inexactness that can be eliminated by setting tick_rate()
higher?
Or is it something else? Are you running your program under Windows 95? In
that case, maybe the Windows shell is also consuming time. I always run
Euphoria programs from the DOS prompt. I myself will also test this again
using tick_rate.

BTW: Jeff said I should not complain about the speed of 100000 comparisons
being done in tenths of seconds. Well, I don't. In fact, I keep being
surprised with the speed at which Euphoria is doing calculations and
comparisons on my now already 'oldfashioned' P75. Compliments again to RDS.

Does anyone have a suggestion for a nice signature?
