Quote Punctuation Converted to Measurement
As to marketing being stronger than the truth is not only in computers.
It began in DC. Or at least it was/is being fine tuned there. If limited to there we would be okay, now it is everwhere it seems. If you are fortunate enough to have lived when you could trust someone's word you may realize what has been lost.

Ken, nice to know that someone else has been introduced to APL. The last I knew there were a few pockets of people in Wall Street that used APL. Other than that, I think it has been on its way out for a while. Forth, huh? I see it on the web but never heard of it before. You obviously are on the leading edge

Quote Punctuation Converted to Measurement
I wouldn't call Forth leading edge. I was introduced to it in school and never had a need to really learn it. Then while writing some new instrumentation code for a customer they gave me some old Forth source code that implemented some of their proprietary algorithms. It was no fun figuring that mess out. Some silicon manufacturers used to make processors that were called "forth engines" specifically designed to handle forth. It's a shame these days that most everything is C/C++. I miss choosing the best language for the job at hand. C is poor in several areas and C++ is just a mess.
