 I found that David's was a bit confusing for an absolute beginner,
 because my friend tried his tutorial, and he said,
"What the f***k is this?!?"

No offense taken. In the near-two and a half years since I have been writing
tutorials for Euphoria,  I realize that while both the first and the second
tutorials have done a good job showing people how to program in Euphoria,
(the second tutorial is now on a CD from Programmer's Paradise, entitled
"Programmer's Paradise II"), there have been a few who commented much like
 your friend about the tutorial. However, I realized if I am going to do
things that expose myself to any sort of negative press, I better have
a suit of armour for skin, or don't bother doing tutorials.

Nate, I wish you the best of luck with your tutorial. I am especially hopeful
you can find people who can write it in various languages as you planned.
I urge the Euphoria programming community to help Nate write this tutorial. If
it
turns out to be the winner I suspect it is going to be, I'll be happy to
close down ABGTE in favour of a superior tutorial.
