"Robust" translates to "Speed", unless you want to use
asm, which then wouldnt really be using the language.

The 'Robustness' of a language depends on how well integrated
it is with the next lower system.
I think an improvement for Eu here would be constant
sequences (of a fixed element type) that would be accessable
by pointer or something like that.  Probably a sequence
of type ulong would be good enough to do a lot with.
I guess it would be ok to call it an Array?
That would of course add a new base type to Euphoria.


Take care for now,
Al
