Based on a quick look at the Euphoria web site, Python would be a much
better option.  Euphoria is a proprietary product that is only available
on a few platforms; it looks like Euphoria programs tend to not be
cross-platform even for the available platforms.  Euphoria also looks a
bit uglier than Python, and it lacks some of Python's features, such as
threads.

What if there were no rhetorical questions?
