By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete FORTH (General Trade) (Paperback)
If you are a dabbler in FORTH, and you are looking for a good quick reference book, *this is the one!*
The Complete FORTH gives you everything you need to get started. There are easy-to-follow diagrams, well-written explanations, and even a handy reference card!
Many code examples are provided to help you experiment with this often misunderstood and always underestimated programming language!

As good as Starting Forth, March 7, 2002
This review is from: The Complete FORTH (General Trade) (Paperback)
This book draws you in slowly but surely. It's thorough - and at the half way mark I'm really hooked ! There aren't as many differences between the current ANS Forths and the Standard-79 covered in this book - and even then they are easily resolved.
The style is perhaps not as entertaining as "Starting Forth" by Brodie, but very pleasant reading all the same. If you can find it, get it ! ( Beginner's / Intermediates )
