That sentence doesn't make a lot of sense to me!! How can one come to the conclusion that you can write efficient programs from what was previously stated in that sentence? :)

Maybe Fred should go here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PureBasic
and edit the text himself, as this is where answers.com got their info in the first place..
