What is Forth?
'''Forth''' (sometimes written '''FORTH''') is a stack-based [[programming language]] best known for its use of [[Reverse Polish notation]] which greatly simplified the compiler as it required no [[Order of operations|precedence]] analysis component. It was developed by [[Charles H. Moore]] in [[1969]]. Forth uses a two component system, an [[operating system]] to run the programs, and an editor to write them. Like most other high-level languages, FORTH can produce highly-efficient code. ==Other websites== *[http://www.forth.org/ Forth Interest Group] {{tech-stub}} {{authority control}} [[Category:Programming languages]]
