When you get past doing the most simplistic programs, though, is when you need to worry about some of the same things that assembly-language programmers have to worry about -- namely storage allocation and keeping track of types. This is where Euphoria has its strengths. C++ is the same way. That is, it is simple until you scratch beneath the surface. The best point about Euphoria is its simple value-based semantics. You, the programmer, know that everything can be boiled down to a value. C is kind of like this too but it is much more complicated. This is actually the key behind C++ templates and so-called generic programming which is definitely too complicated for me to understand. That is what makes Euphoria great. j.
