*Puts up "Don't Feed the Troll" sign*

So how do you think we will respond?
1. C is over 20 years old, and is one of the most widely used
programming languages out there. Almost every non-trivial language
*copies* C to some extent, because that is what programmers are
familiar with. C has a printf function. Euphoria has a printf
function. That makes sense, because a programmer familiar with C is
not going to want to learn a new functional system, with new control
codes, just to be able to print formatted output to the screen. Java
uses this same system for formatted output.

2.  Euphoria has far less in common with C than most other languages.
Java is much closer to C - it has much more rigid typing, and very
similar syntax. Many things are trivial in Euphoria that are very
difficult in C - dynamic sequences for one. Some things are trivial in
C and somewhat difficult in Euphoria - interfacing with DLL's for one.

3. You are trolling. There are no reasons to come to a forum for
euphoria for the first time, and just insult the language. If you have
a point, state it. If you are learning the language and having
troubles, ask questions on this forum and we will answer you. If you
only want to be irritating, go away.
