*** Official Sup Forums Friendly Forth Forth Thread ***
Non autisitcs welcome
I spent alot of time thinking about how to program in a more lazy way and here it is: forth.com/starting-forth/ repl.it/languages/forth >This shit is easy as fuck to learn >This shit is fast as fuck >This shit can run on any computer, even old computers from the 1980's. You can get it down to less than a kilobyte. This is some zen monk shit I pulled from the mountains, ok. Don't ask me how I found out about it. Just learn this shit and you will master a computer very quickly. Google is your friend kiwiirc.com/client/irc.freenode.net/?nick=newuser|?#forth That link right up there ^ is the chatroom. These are some old dudes with beards. Just ask them shit.
you have to copy down the math equation to do it then type the math equation in. Hopefully though these equations can be built off of each other to make this process simpler
Using reverse polish notation will allow you to properly communicate the arithmetic necessary to complete your desired task. This is the only form of mathematics it will find acceptable

What is the actual benefit of using this >non nigger-tier answer please

Forth's window of opportunity came and went, it should have been the shell language of all personal computers in the 70s and 80s, there is no more use for Forth outside of electronics testing. Stack juggling gets old fast, just use Lisp, all the power of Forth without the duping and swapping
Carter Moore
the dream of the 80's is alive
Bentley Martin
forth is shitty you can implement it in just a few lines of bash
look at thse fucking graphics
Camden Evans
Why are you posting worst girl?

I remember Forth tutorial consisting of four (or maybe five) commands operating with stack, nothing more. So, what's this language useful for?

Lisp/assembly geek, the aforementioned langs are capable of this as well, is the magic all in how reverse polish notation changes your thinking?

Could you explain Classic Star Trek comparisons?
Evan Hernandez
Reverse polish notation superior polish notation

emacs is like the starship that is carrying all of the lisp programmers. If you program in emacs lisp to edit the function of emacs you are like scotty holding down the ship. Scheme is purely functional and so it is very logical like spock. Common lisp is the leader of the lisps. Clojure is an attempt to get web developers to accidentally learn lisp.
William Bailey
sure, Common Lisp quickly loses its purity as you start bringing in external libraries and foreign functions, but is still very powerful and makes a great core stack language, moreso probably than any of the other Lisps
papers coming out of the Sussman circle at MIT usually involve Scheme, its a much cleaner language than Common Lisp
Emacs has had a lot of work done to make it into a powerful text editor and Lisp IDE, for a lot of developers its the faithful, cross platform glue that keeps your projects together
the Arc Lisp trekkie kid at this point should be replaced with a dead child in the trash

Mucho gracias. Do you have more pics "How an X programmer views users of other languages"?
