Description:
# OpenEuphoria [![](https://openeuphoria.org/logos/80x84-mongoose-color-lite.png)](https://openeuphoria.org)
Here's a pretty obscure programming language that no other distribution has (to my knowledge). It's a pretty old language (1993) that has gained a niche following since it became open source over a decade ago. I tried packaging it a few years back and gave up after a week of trying. I thought it would be neat to have it in the repos and maybe it will get a few users that way. 

### Features:  

* General purpose
* Generate C code
* Extensive SFML support
* Extensive Gtk support
* Native IDE
* An active friendly community
* Easy to learn syntax
* Procedural
* Performance focused 
* 4 data types

### Code Example:
**_FizzBuzz_**
```
include std/console.e  
integer a = 3  
integer b = 5  
integer c = 100  
  
for i = 1 to c do   
	if    remainder(i,a * b) = 0 then display("FizzBuzz")  
	elsif remainder(i,a) = 0     then display("Fizz")  
	elsif remainder(i,b) = 0     then display("Buzz")  
	else                              display(i)  
	end if  
end for
```
