stack based languages

Name: Anonymous 2007-09-10 0:18 ID:JdAHaYKN

Hello, i am interested in learning a stack oriented language, so i started learning Forth. (from http://www.amresearch.com/starting_forth/)
Some alternatives i heard of are cat and factor.

What is best to learn from those? And suggest a good tutorial

Factor looks like the only one worth learning, since it actually has some relevant libraries.

It also has zero noteworthy tutorials.

Factor has very nice documentation and workspace too... i guess i'll go with factor.
Are stack oriented languages worth it though? Or am i wasting my time with rot swap dup swap over ?

: (fib) ( n next result -- result ) pick zero? [ 2nip ] [ rot 1- -rot over + swap (fib) ] if ;
: fib ( n -- result ) 1 0 (fib) ;

I don't think so, honestly.

You can do funky tricks with them, since they're pretty much Lisp minus the parens, but the readability leaves a lot to be desired.
