The ep5 Educational Broadcasting Foundation

ep5BAS gives the less experienced C# programmer the means to create and maintain general-purpose automation programs with a combination of programmer-friendly example code and a clean and easily understood modular program structure. ep5BAS is optimized for ease of use by the software developer and overall reliability ahead of the utmost efficiency in lines of code and memory utilization. The underlying principle is that, if it’s one or the other, then it’s better to be reliable than it is to be blazingly fast.
