 Forth programming language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Forth is a procedural, stack-oriented, reflective programming language and programming environment.
Forth has been popular for developing embedded systems and instrument controls because it is easy to add small machine code definitions to the language and use those in an interactive high-level programming environment.
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).

 WHAT IS FORTH
Forth development systems are available for nearly every CPU in existence, and Forth is consistently the first third-party high level language to appear on a new CPU architecture, personal computer, or operating system.
By 1981, Forth systems that ran as well-behaved tasks under a host operating system, used normal files for program and data storage, and supported floating point arithmetic and visual editors were readily available from the software houses which had gotten their start with FIG-Forth.
I find the contemptuous attitude toward Forth that is common among C programmers especially disconcerting, because the two languages are virtually contemporary, were designed with many of the same objectives, and require much the same sort of approach when solving a particular programming problem.

 Forth programming language - overview
Forth is a computer programming language originally designed for embedded and real-time applications.
Many experienced Forth programmers have reported that the language frees them to think in terms of the solution instead of the tool, that it is expressive enough to encourage original, elegant solutions without penalty and without bending over backward.
Paper copies of this and other books are available from FORTH, Inc. Also, Forth programming classes are offered regularly at our facilities, and can be given at your site as well.

 BBC - h2g2 - Forth - the Programming Language
The Forth 'word' is the equivalent of a procedure, function or subroutine in other programming languages.
The term 'Fourth Generation Language' (4GL) went on to mean something different in the computer world (a language for interrogation of relational databases), and Forth is not a 4GL in the normal sense of the term.
Forth also produced very small programs that would run on computers with very little memory.
