| | Forth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Forth programming style uses very few named data objects compared with other languages; typically such data objects are used to contain data which is used by a number of words or tasks (in a multitasked implementation). | | | Forth assemblers often use a reverse-polish syntax in which the parameters of an instruction precede the instruction. | | | Forth is a programming language and programming environment, initially developed by Charles H. Moore at the US National Radio Astronomy Observatory in the early 1970s. |

| | A Brief Introduction to Forth |
| | Forth is both an extensible language and an interactive program development methodology. | | | Forth programmers traditionally value complete understanding and control over the machine and their programming environment. | | | At a deeper level, Forth programs use RPN not as an end in itself, but rather as a means to achieve simple syntax and flexible modularity. |

| | Forth: An underview |
| | Forth is not just a language, its more of a philosophy for solving problems. | | | The language "Forth" was developed during the sixties while Moore was working as a computer programmer at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, and later as a freelance engineer. | | | Forth is an interactive programming environment originally designed for programmers developing applications using mini- and micro-computers. |

| | Forth |
| | Forth has been in the firmware of Sun Microsystem's workstations and computers for a number of years. | | | Forth is a stack-oriented language and interactive environment. | | | Forth is probably a transition between 3rd and 4th generation languages in that it allows you to CREATE a language which is suited for your task. |

| | Thoughtful Programming and Forth |
| | Forth was there to let the picture be as simple as possible and let the programmer map the solution to the problem to the computer. | | | Chuck's view of programming, as I understand his description of it, is that there is a problem, a programmer and his abstraction and the computer. | | | Chuck has moved most of this Forth language into the hardware on his computers leaving so little for his software to do that it is very difficult for people to see how his software could possibly be so small. |

| | The name FORTH was intended to suggest software for the fourth (next) generation computers, which Moore saw as being characterized by distributed small computers. | | | A Forth system running on the bare hardware is also known as a native system (in contrast to a hosted system, which runs on an OS). | | | Forth is a stack-based, extensible language without type-checking. |

| | Simple Forth |
| | Forths that implement "locals" also provide for value names that apply only within the word they are defined in. | | | In Forth, numbers can be entered or displayed in any base from 2 to 36 (the computer stores the numbers in binary - base 2). | | | Because in Forth data is passed implicitly, it is considered insane to define a word without documenting what data (if any) it takes from the stack and what data (if any) it returns to the stack. |
