• Easy to learn and to use. wonderful language

  manwoo21October 23, 2013

  Pros

  I am an engineer. I do not need complicated GUI program. At this view, I think EUPHORIA is very easy and useful.

  Cons

  Not popular language. So it is diffcult to find out someone who use EUPHORIA. And homepage give much information for coding and enough.

  Summary

  I think it is good language for beginner. And almost (engineer's) problem can be coded.

• Easy to learn, easy to debug and fast ... and now open source

  ma-da-linJuly 17, 2007

  Pros

  Depends on what kind of application you are trying to build, Euphoria can be the best or the worst choice. I do not recomend this programming language if your application must have a lot of GUI elements, windows, dialogs or things like this. You will spend more time designing your GUI than programming the algoritms. Here I am talking about Windows GUI. For MSDOS programming there are a lot of libraries available for Euphoria... <p>For any other goal Euphoria is a good choice. There is a good Euphoria database system. There are a lot of libraries and solutions for almost any common problems. I have a complete dinamic website based on Euphoria, running faster than another one based on PHP for example.<p>I can't recommend this product highly enough because it's an interesting concept, easy to understand and use. No matter if you are an experienced C or C++ programmer or a beginer with no programming skils, you will spend only some days to learn Euphoria.<p>Easy to learn, easy to debug and fast. This is how it is.

  Cons

  Dealing with Windows dinamic link libraries is difficult. There are no complete Windows dll "wrappers", there are some good libraries for dealing with that, but you will always encounter a situation where some functions or some constants from Windows API are not defined...

  Cons

  Euphoria interpreter should be open source... Only if you spend some money you can get the source code.

• Easy, clear, powerful, and very fast

  JacquesGuyMay 11, 2006

  Pros

  The syntax is clear and regular, making for terse, very readable code. Terser than Pascal, immensely more readable than C (which is downright cryptic). Automatic garbage collection is a godsend and so is the Euphoria type "sequence" which I can best describe as typeless, dimensionless arrays. Writing in Euphoria takes me a fraction of the time it used to take in Borland Pascal -- perhaps one fourth -- and debugging is hardly ever needed.

• A good programming language

  Vincent(Xaero)May 12, 2005

  Pros

  Euphoria is a small, simple, elegent, and fast programming language. Dynamic sequences makes the language powerful. <p>There is a binder, & Euphoria to C translator which makes standalone EXE or DLL files.

  Cons

  Very little in terms of professional development tools are provided in the package, such as IDE's, Windows/Linux editor, and packaging utilities. The standard library is aging, and offers only basic functionability. Windows/Linux support is bare bones, with no integrated OS API of anykind built in to the language, thus making it very challenging to produce a Windows/Linux GUI application. (Thanks to a dedicated team of people, a library called Win32Lib has wrapped a significant amount of the API for the Windows platform).

• Great

  petopeplibMay 1, 2005

  Pros

  It is a good programming language for beginners, but not as easy as BASIC. <p> <p>You do not have to compile.

  Cons

  You have to type 'ex' to run the program, and if you want to distribute it, you have to include the .e files, and the ex program.

• How do you use it again?

  October 31, 2004

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  I found the documentation awful, the program did not run on my computer at all. I use windows xp. It smells like a shareware language, and unfortunately it is not polished at all. Windows functionality is non existant, dont bother with this trash.
