Heh heh. The level is not an indication of how primitive the language is. It's 
an indication of how abstracted from the machine language it is. Scripting is 
considered to be high level not because it is advances, but because it is most 
like human language and least like machine language.

My guess is, a scripter writes in a high level language like Applescript or 
Livecode script. A programmer writes in a mid level language like C++ or 
Pascal. A coder writes in a low level language like assembly.

Hi

Congratulations and Eudemonia to you all Ali.

Now let's see if I can use Computer metaphors,puns and word play  with the
rest of them ...

Now the real "Programming" starts with a Finite State Ali-Gata which is a
child  Object Instantiation of the Parent Class. Set the garbage collector
to automatic because there will be a lot of mutable objects in the FIFO.



But more to the point have you bought him a Raspberry Pi yet and will this
mean version nine will be compiled for the Pi soon?

Congrats again Ali Children - and Grand Children are what makes life living
(and interesting!!).
