TEXT:00,If you want to get the most out of the Euphoria
TEXT:16,programming language, getting a handle on how to
TEXT:16,work with data objects should be at the top of your
TEXT:16,list. There are a lot of library routines that are
TEXT:16,meant for handling data objects. You can check for
TEXT:16,the type of a data object. You can also change
TEXT:16,the way a data object is presented, such as going
TEXT:16,from 2.34 to "2.34", and can even go beyond the
TEXT:16,simple operators of Euphoria to create your own
TEXT:16,unique data structures.

TEXT:32,Because some of the library routines in Euphoria can return either an
TEXT:16,atom or a sequence, it is very important to test for the type of a
TEXT:16,data object. The library routines involved are named the same as the
TEXT:16,variable type portion of a variable declaration statement.
