Euphoria 6 Euphoria stands for End-User Programming with Hierarchical Objects for Robust Interpreted Applications. Euphoria's first incarnation was created by Robert Craig on an Atari Mega-ST and it was first released in 1993. It is now maintained by Rapid Deployment Software. It is a free, simple, flexible, easy to learn, and interpreted but extremely fast 32-bit high-level programming language for DOS, Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and more. Euphoria is being used to develop Windows GUI programs, high-speed DOS games, and Linux/FreeBSD X Windows programs. Euphoria can also be used for CGI (Web- based) programming. EuphoriaFeatures Here is the list of major features of Euphoria:  It is a simple, flexible, powerful language definition that is easy to learn and use.   It supports dynamic storage allocation which means variables grow or shrink without the programmer having to worry about allocating and freeing the memory. It takes care of garbage collection automatically.   It is extremely faster than conventional interpreters such as Perl and Python.   Euphoria programs run under Linux, FreeBSD, 32-bit Windows, and any DOS environment.   Euphoria programs are not subject to any 640K memory limitations.   It provides an optimizing Euphoria-To-C translator which you can use to translate your Euphoria program into C and then compile it with a C compiler to get an executable (.exe) file. This can boost your program speed by 2 to 5 times.   Underlying hardware are completely hidden which means programs are not aware of word-lengths, underlying bit-level representation of values, byte- order etc.  1. EUPHORIA OVERVIEW
Euphoria 7  Euphoria installation comes along with a full-screen source debugger, an execution profiler, and a full-screen multi-file editor.   It supports run-time error-handling, subscript, and type checking.  It is an open source language and comes completely free of cost. PlatformRequirements Euphoria is available on Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, and OSX. Here is the bare minimum version required with the following platforms −  WIN32 version: You need Windows 95 or any later version of Windows. It runs fine on XP and Vista.   Linux version: You need any reasonably up-to-date Linux distribution, that has libc6 or later. For example, Red Hat 5.2 or later works fine.   FreeBSD version: You need any reasonably up-to-date FreeBSD distribution.   Mac OS X version: You need any reasonably up-to-date Intel based Mac. EuphoriaLimitations  Here are some prominent limitations of Euphoria:   Even though Euphoria is simple, fast, and flexible enough for the programmers; it does not provide call support for many important functionalities. For example, network programming.   Euphoria was invented in 1993, and still you would not find any book written on this language. There is also not much documentation available for the language. But these days, the language is getting popular very fast and you can hope to have nice utilities and books available for the language very soon. EuphoriaLicensing This product is free and open source, and has benefited from the contributions of many people. You have complete royalty-free rights to distribute any Euphoria programs that you develop.
Euphoria 8 Icon files, such as euphoria.ico and binaries available in euphoriabin, may be distributed with or without your changes. You can shroud or bind your program and distribute the resulting files royalty-free. Some additional 3rd party legal restrictions might apply when you use the Euphoria- To-C translator. The generous Open Source License allows Euphoria to use for both personal and commercial purposes. Unlike many other open source licenses, your changes do not have to be made open source.
Euphoria 9 This chapter describes about the installation of Euphoria on various platforms. You can follow the steps to install Euphoria on Linux, FreeBSD, and 32-bit Windows. So you can choose the steps based on your working environment. Linux,FreeBSDInstallation Official website provides .tar.gz file to install Euphoria on your Linux or BSD OS. You can download your latest version of Euphoria from its official website Download Euphoria. Once you have .tar.gz file, here are three simple steps to be performed to install Euphoria on your Linux or Free BSD machine: Step 1: Installing Files Untar the downloaded file euphoria-4.0b2.tar.gz in a directory where you want to install Euphoria. If you want to install it in /home directory as follows, then: $cp euphoria-4.0b2.tar.gz /home $cd /home $gunzip euphoria-4.0b2.tar.gz $tar -xvf euphoria-4.0b2.tar This creates a directory hierarchy inside /home/euphoria-4.0b2 directory as follows: $ls -l -rw-r--r-- 1 1001 1001 2485 Aug 17 06:15 Jamfile -rw-r--r-- 1 1001 1001 5172 Aug 20 12:37 Jamrules -rw-r--r-- 1 1001 1001 1185 Aug 13 06:21 License.txt drwxr-xr-x 2 1001 1001 4096 Aug 31 10:07 bin drwxr-xr-x 7 1001 1001 4096 Aug 31 10:07 demo 2. EUPHORIA ENVIRONMENT
Euphoria 10 -rw-r--r-- 1 1001 1001 366 Mar 18 09:02 file_id.diz drwxr-xr-x 4 1001 1001 4096 Aug 31 10:07 include -rw-r--r-- 1 1001 1001 1161 Mar 18 09:02 installu.doc drwxr-xr-x 4 1001 1001 4096 Aug 31 10:07 source drwxr-xr-x 19 1001 1001 4096 Sep 7 12:09 tests drwxr-xr-x 2 1001 1001 4096 Aug 31 10:07 tutorial Note: File name euphoria-4.0b2.tar.gz depends on latest version available. We are using 4.0b2 version of the language for this tutorial. Step 2: Setting Up the Path After installing Euphoria, you need to set proper paths so that your shell can find required Euphoria binaries and utilities. Before proceeding, there are following three important environment variables you need to set up: 1. Set PATH environment variable to point /home/euphoria-4.0b2/bin directory. 2. Set EUDIR environment variable to point to /home/euphoria-4.0b2. 3. Set EUINC environment variable to point to /home/euphoria-4.0b2/include. These variables can be set as follows − $export PATH=$PATH:/home/euphoria-4.0b2/bin $export EUDIR=/home/euphoria-4.0b2 $export EUINC=/home/euphoria-4.0b2/include Note: The above commands used to set environment variables may differ depending on your Shell. We used bash shell for executing these commands to set the variables. Step 3: Confirming Installation Confirm if you installed Euphoria successfully or not. Execute the following command: $eui -version If you get following result, then it means you have installed Euphoria successfully; otherwise you have to go back and check all the steps again.
Euphoria 11 $eui -version Euphoria Interpreter 4.0.0 beta 2 (r2670) for Linux Using System Memory $ That is it, Euphoria Programming Environment is ready on your UNIX machine, and you can start writing complex programs in easy steps. WIN32andDOSInstallation Official website provides .exe file to install Euphoria on your WIN32 or DOS OS. You can download your latest version of Euphoria from its official website Download Euphoria. Once you have .exe file, here are three simple steps to follow for installing Euphoria Programming language on your WIN32 or DOS machine: Step 1: Installing Files Double click on the downloaded .exe setup program to install all the files. We downloaded euphoria-40b2.exe file for installation. The filename euphoria-40b2.exe depends on latest version available. We use version 4 beta 2 of the language. By default Euphoria would be installed in C:euphoria-40b2 directory but you can also select a desired location. Step 2: Rebooting the Machine Re-boot your machine to complete the installation. Step 3: Confirming Installation Confirm if you installed Euphoria successfully or not. Execute the following command: c:>eui -version If you get following result, then it means you have installed Euphoria successfully; otherwise you have to go back and check all the steps again.
Euphoria 12 c:>eui -version Euphoria Interpreter 4.0.0 beta 2 (r2670) for Windows Using Managed Memory c:> That is it, Euphoria Programming Environment is ready on your WIN32 machine, and you can start writing complex programs in easy steps. EuphoriaInterpreters  Depending on the platform you are using, Euphoria has multiple interpreters:  The main interpreter is eui.  On windows platforms, you have two choices. If you run eui then a console window is created. If you run euiw then no console is created, making it suitable for GUI applications.   Euphoria does not care about your choice of file extensions. By convention however; the console-based applications come with .ex extension.   GUI-based applications have .exw extension and the include files have .e extension.
Euphoria 13 The Euphoria language has many similarities to Perl, C, and Java. However, there are some definite differences between the languages. This chapter is designed to quickly get you up to speed on the syntax that is expected in Euphoria. This tutorial assumes you are working with Linux and all the examples have been written on Linux platform. But it is observed that there is no any prominent difference in program syntax on Linux and WIN32. Hence you can follow the same steps on WIN32. FirstEuphoriaProgram Let us write a simple Euphoria program in a script. Type the following source code in test.ex file and save it. #!/home/euphoria-4.0b2/bin/eui puts(1, "Hello, Euphoria!n") Let us say, Euphoria interpreter is available in /home/euphoria-4.0b2/bin/ directory. Now run this program as follows: $ chmod +x test.ex # This is to make file executable $ ./test.ex This would produce the following result: Hello, Euphoria! This script used a built-in function puts() which takes two arguments. First argument indicates file name or device number, and second argument indicates a string which you want to print. Here 1 indicates STDOUT device. 3. BASIC SYNTAX
Euphoria 14 EuphoriaIdentifiers A Euphoria identifier is a name used to identify a variable, function, class, module, or other object. An identifier starts with a letter A to Z or a to z and then followed by letters, digits, or underscores. Euphoria does not allow punctuation characters such as @, $, and % within identifiers. Euphoria is a case sensitive programming language. Thus Manpower and manpower are two different identifiers in Euphoria. For example, the valid identifiers are:  n  color26  ShellSort  quick_sort  a_very_long_indentifier ReservedWords The following list shows the reserved words in Euphoria. These reserved words may not be used as constant or variable or any other identifier names. Euphoria keywords contain lowercase letters only. and exit override as export procedure break fallthru public by for retry case function return constant global routine
Euphoria 15 continue goto switch do if then else ifdef to elsedef include type elsif label until elsifdef loop while end namespace with entry not without enum or xor Expressions Euphoria lets you calculate results by forming expressions. However, in Euphoria you can perform calculations on entire sequences of data with one expression. You can handle a sequence much as you would handle a single number. It can be copied, passed to a subroutine, or calculated upon as a unit. For example: {1,2,3} + 5 This is an expression that adds the sequence {1, 2, 3} and the atom 5 to get the resulting sequence {6, 7, 8}. You would learn sequences in subsequent chapters. BlocksofCode One of the first caveats programmers encounter when learning Euphoria is the fact that there are no braces to indicate blocks of code for procedure and function definitions or flow control. Blocks of code are denoted by associated keywords.
Euphoria 16 The following example shows if...then...end if block: if condition then code block comes here end if Multi-LineStatements Statements in Euphoria typically end with a new line. Euphoria does however, allow to write a single statement in multiple lines. For example: total = item_one + item_two + item_three EscapeCharacters Escape characters may be entered using a back-slash. For example: The following table is a list of escape or non-printable characters that can be represented with backslash notation. Backslash notation Description n Newline r Carriage return t Tab Backslash " Double quote ' Single quote
Euphoria 17 CommentsinEuphoria Any comments are ignored by the compiler and have no effect on execution speed. It is advisable to use more comments in your program to make it more readable. There are three forms of comment text: 1. Comments start by two dashes and extend to the end of the current line. 2. The multi-line format comment is kept inside /*...*/, even if that occurs on a different line. 3. 4. You can use a special comment beginning with the two character sequence “#!” only on the first line of the program. Example #!/home/euphoria-4.0b2/bin/eui -- First comment puts(1, "Hello, Euphoria!n") -- second comment /* This is a comment which extends over a number of text lines and has no impact on the program */ This will produce the following result: Hello, Euphoria! Note: On the first line (only) of your program, you can use a special comment beginning with “#!”. This informs the Linux shell that your file should be executed by the Euphoria interpreter.

  • 7. Euphoria 6 Euphoria stands for End-User Programming with Hierarchical Objects for Robust Interpreted Applications. Euphoria's first incarnation was created by Robert Craig on an Atari Mega-ST and it was first released in 1993. It is now maintained by Rapid Deployment Software. It is a free, simple, flexible, easy to learn, and interpreted but extremely fast 32-bit high-level programming language for DOS, Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and more. Euphoria is being used to develop Windows GUI programs, high-speed DOS games, and Linux/FreeBSD X Windows programs. Euphoria can also be used for CGI (Web- based) programming. EuphoriaFeatures Here is the list of major features of Euphoria:  It is a simple, flexible, powerful language definition that is easy to learn and use.   It supports dynamic storage allocation which means variables grow or shrink without the programmer having to worry about allocating and freeing the memory. It takes care of garbage collection automatically.   It is extremely faster than conventional interpreters such as Perl and Python.   Euphoria programs run under Linux, FreeBSD, 32-bit Windows, and any DOS environment.   Euphoria programs are not subject to any 640K memory limitations.   It provides an optimizing Euphoria-To-C translator which you can use to translate your Euphoria program into C and then compile it with a C compiler to get an executable (.exe) file. This can boost your program speed by 2 to 5 times.   Underlying hardware are completely hidden which means programs are not aware of word-lengths, underlying bit-level representation of values, byte- order etc.  1. EUPHORIA OVERVIEW
  • 8. Euphoria 7  Euphoria installation comes along with a full-screen source debugger, an execution profiler, and a full-screen multi-file editor.   It supports run-time error-handling, subscript, and type checking.  It is an open source language and comes completely free of cost. PlatformRequirements Euphoria is available on Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, and OSX. Here is the bare minimum version required with the following platforms −  WIN32 version: You need Windows 95 or any later version of Windows. It runs fine on XP and Vista.   Linux version: You need any reasonably up-to-date Linux distribution, that has libc6 or later. For example, Red Hat 5.2 or later works fine.   FreeBSD version: You need any reasonably up-to-date FreeBSD distribution.   Mac OS X version: You need any reasonably up-to-date Intel based Mac. EuphoriaLimitations  Here are some prominent limitations of Euphoria:   Even though Euphoria is simple, fast, and flexible enough for the programmers; it does not provide call support for many important functionalities. For example, network programming.   Euphoria was invented in 1993, and still you would not find any book written on this language. There is also not much documentation available for the language. But these days, the language is getting popular very fast and you can hope to have nice utilities and books available for the language very soon. EuphoriaLicensing This product is free and open source, and has benefited from the contributions of many people. You have complete royalty-free rights to distribute any Euphoria programs that you develop.
  • 9. Euphoria 8 Icon files, such as euphoria.ico and binaries available in euphoriabin, may be distributed with or without your changes. You can shroud or bind your program and distribute the resulting files royalty-free. Some additional 3rd party legal restrictions might apply when you use the Euphoria- To-C translator. The generous Open Source License allows Euphoria to use for both personal and commercial purposes. Unlike many other open source licenses, your changes do not have to be made open source.
  • 10. Euphoria 9 This chapter describes about the installation of Euphoria on various platforms. You can follow the steps to install Euphoria on Linux, FreeBSD, and 32-bit Windows. So you can choose the steps based on your working environment. Linux,FreeBSDInstallation Official website provides .tar.gz file to install Euphoria on your Linux or BSD OS. You can download your latest version of Euphoria from its official website Download Euphoria. Once you have .tar.gz file, here are three simple steps to be performed to install Euphoria on your Linux or Free BSD machine: Step 1: Installing Files Untar the downloaded file euphoria-4.0b2.tar.gz in a directory where you want to install Euphoria. If you want to install it in /home directory as follows, then: $cp euphoria-4.0b2.tar.gz /home $cd /home $gunzip euphoria-4.0b2.tar.gz $tar -xvf euphoria-4.0b2.tar This creates a directory hierarchy inside /home/euphoria-4.0b2 directory as follows: $ls -l -rw-r--r-- 1 1001 1001 2485 Aug 17 06:15 Jamfile -rw-r--r-- 1 1001 1001 5172 Aug 20 12:37 Jamrules -rw-r--r-- 1 1001 1001 1185 Aug 13 06:21 License.txt drwxr-xr-x 2 1001 1001 4096 Aug 31 10:07 bin drwxr-xr-x 7 1001 1001 4096 Aug 31 10:07 demo 2.

We are using 4.0b2 version of the language for this tutorial. Step 2: Setting Up the Path After installing Euphoria, you need to set proper paths so that your shell can find required Euphoria binaries and utilities. Before proceeding, there are following three important environment variables you need to set up: 1. Set PATH environment variable to point /home/euphoria-4.0b2/bin directory. 2. Set EUDIR environment variable to point to /home/euphoria-4.0b2. 3. Set EUINC environment variable to point to /home/euphoria-4.0b2/include. These variables can be set as follows − $export PATH=$PATH:/home/euphoria-4.0b2/bin $export EUDIR=/home/euphoria-4.0b2 $export EUINC=/home/euphoria-4.0b2/include Note: The above commands used to set environment variables may differ depending on your Shell. We used bash shell for executing these commands to set the variables. Step 3: Confirming Installation Confirm if you installed Euphoria successfully or not. Execute the following command: $eui -version If you get following result, then it means you have installed Euphoria successfully; otherwise you have to go back and check all the steps again.

Euphoria 11 $eui -version Euphoria Interpreter 4.0.0 beta 2 (r2670) for Linux Using System Memory $ That is it, Euphoria Programming Environment is ready on your UNIX machine, and you can start writing complex programs in easy steps. WIN32andDOSInstallation Official website provides .exe file to install Euphoria on your WIN32 or DOS OS. You can download your latest version of Euphoria from its official website Download Euphoria. Once you have .exe file, here are three simple steps to follow for installing Euphoria Programming language on your WIN32 or DOS machine: Step 1: Installing Files Double click on the downloaded .exe setup program to install all the files. We downloaded euphoria-40b2.exe file for installation. The filename euphoria-40b2.exe depends on latest version available. We use version 4 beta 2 of the language. By default Euphoria would be installed in C:euphoria-40b2 directory but you can also select a desired location. Step 2: Rebooting the Machine Re-boot your machine to complete the installation. Step 3: Confirming Installation Confirm if you installed Euphoria successfully or not. Execute the following command: c:>eui -version If you get following result, then it means you have installed Euphoria successfully; otherwise you have to go back and check all the steps again.

Euphoria 12 c:>eui -version Euphoria Interpreter 4.0.0 beta 2 (r2670) for Windows Using Managed Memory c:> That is it, Euphoria Programming Environment is ready on your WIN32 machine, and you can start writing complex programs in easy steps. EuphoriaInterpreters  Depending on the platform you are using, Euphoria has multiple interpreters:  The main interpreter is eui.  On windows platforms, you have two choices. If you run eui then a console window is created. If you run euiw then no console is created, making it suitable for GUI applications.   Euphoria does not care about your choice of file extensions. By convention however; the console-based applications come with .ex extension.   GUI-based applications have .exw extension and the include files have .e extension.
  • 14. Euphoria 13 The Euphoria language has many similarities to Perl, C, and Java. However, there are some definite differences between the languages. This chapter is designed to quickly get you up to speed on the syntax that is expected in Euphoria. This tutorial assumes you are working with Linux and all the examples have been written on Linux platform. But it is observed that there is no any prominent difference in program syntax on Linux and WIN32. Hence you can follow the same steps on WIN32. FirstEuphoriaProgram Let us write a simple Euphoria program in a script. Type the following source code in test.ex file and save it. #!/home/euphoria-4.0b2/bin/eui puts(1, "Hello, Euphoria!n") Let us say, Euphoria interpreter is available in /home/euphoria-4.0b2/bin/ directory. Now run this program as follows: $ chmod +x test.ex # This is to make file executable $ ./test.ex This would produce the following result: Hello, Euphoria! This script used a built-in function puts() which takes two arguments. First argument indicates file name or device number, and second argument indicates a string which you want to print. Here 1 indicates STDOUT device. 3. BASIC SYNTAX
  • 15. Euphoria 14 EuphoriaIdentifiers A Euphoria identifier is a name used to identify a variable, function, class, module, or other object. An identifier starts with a letter A to Z or a to z and then followed by letters, digits, or underscores. Euphoria does not allow punctuation characters such as @, $, and % within identifiers. Euphoria is a case sensitive programming language. Thus Manpower and manpower are two different identifiers in Euphoria. For example, the valid identifiers are:  n  color26  ShellSort  quick_sort  a_very_long_indentifier ReservedWords The following list shows the reserved words in Euphoria. These reserved words may not be used as constant or variable or any other identifier names. Euphoria keywords contain lowercase letters only. and exit override as export procedure break fallthru public by for retry case function return constant global routine
  • 16. Euphoria 15 continue goto switch do if then else ifdef to elsedef include type elsif label until elsifdef loop while end namespace with entry not without enum or xor Expressions Euphoria lets you calculate results by forming expressions. However, in Euphoria you can perform calculations on entire sequences of data with one expression. You can handle a sequence much as you would handle a single number. It can be copied, passed to a subroutine, or calculated upon as a unit. For example: {1,2,3} + 5 This is an expression that adds the sequence {1, 2, 3} and the atom 5 to get the resulting sequence {6, 7, 8}. You would learn sequences in subsequent chapters. BlocksofCode One of the first caveats programmers encounter when learning Euphoria is the fact that there are no braces to indicate blocks of code for procedure and function definitions or flow control. Blocks of code are denoted by associated keywords.
  • 17. Euphoria 16 The following example shows if...then...end if block: if condition then code block comes here end if Multi-LineStatements Statements in Euphoria typically end with a new line. Euphoria does however, allow to write a single statement in multiple lines. For example: total = item_one + item_two + item_three EscapeCharacters Escape characters may be entered using a back-slash. For example: The following table is a list of escape or non-printable characters that can be represented with backslash notation. Backslash notation Description n Newline r Carriage return t Tab Backslash " Double quote ' Single quote
  • 18. Euphoria 17 CommentsinEuphoria Any comments are ignored by the compiler and have no effect on execution speed. It is advisable to use more comments in your program to make it more readable. There are three forms of comment text: 1. Comments start by two dashes and extend to the end of the current line. 2. The multi-line format comment is kept inside /*...*/, even if that occurs on a different line. 3. 4. You can use a special comment beginning with the two character sequence “#!” only on the first line of the program. Example #!/home/euphoria-4.0b2/bin/eui -- First comment puts(1, "Hello, Euphoria!n") -- second comment /* This is a comment which extends over a number of text lines and has no impact on the program */ This will produce the following result: Hello, Euphoria! Note: On the first line (only) of your program, you can use a special comment beginning with “#!”. This informs the Linux shell that your file should be executed by the Euphoria interpreter.
