For those of you that don't know what a quine is: A Quine is a program that replicates itself exactly. A program that copies it's own code from disk does not count. I have attached my first quine if you are interested. This program takes advantage of Euphoria's native atom/sequence structure, and methods of displaying sequences. It does not write to disk, just to the monitor. I would be interested in seeing different quines in Euphoria. Euphoria's handling of sequences lends itself to many potential variations of quine. Kind Regards, Aidan. ------=_NextPart_000_0009_01C0091B.3F2489A0 name="Quine.ex" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
