Is forth a good programming language? From what I've heard is that it is great for coding small programs.

And modern Forths can have as much as 4 stacks nowadays (main stack, return stack, float stack and the local variables stack). There may be Forth with more stacks, even.
Factor has 5 stacks (data, call, retain, name, and catch).^[1]

Factor is not really a Forth dialect, though. It's a dynamic, higher-level functional language.
