I said more natural. Say implies output to me a lot more than print does... there are many ways to say things... a glance can speak as well as (if not better than) the mouth can. Printing, otoh, is about paper and ink.
\r\n\r\nIt's those little touches that make it great:)
\r\n\r\nHere, a little sales tax calculator for Quebec:
\r\n\r\nnumeric digits 2\r\ndo while input \\= 'END'\r\n pull input\r\n say input * 1.07 * 1.08 /* Yes, they tax the tax. I believe the\r\n * technical term for this is "money\r\n * grubbing." */\r\n\r\nend\r\n\r\n
If you're at a rexxtry prompt: «do while input \\= 'END'; pull input; say input * 1.07 * 1.08; end», and you get a little interactive prompt that you can just pump the numbers into and get your answers back.
\r\n\r\nI find that to be a very natural way to write little one-off programs for doing those little things. That's one of the places where rexx is really strong.
