Re: QBasic/BASIC programmers learning Euphoria

Consider the programming languages QBasic and EUPHORIA as, say, tennis
rackets. They can both help you play the game of tennis, but when yielded by
different individuals, they can become either air-swipers or ball-smashers.

Then again, imagine bringing a bat to the tennis court.

Languages are like this, aren't they?

P.S. All my EUPHORIA programs work. Most of the time. ;)
