Comment Re:[Old Fogey Warning] I programmed in Forth once. (Score 1) 260

I programmed in Forth for an embedded system used on a factory production line to detect crooked labels of bottle of liquid detergent. Ever since then I've thought of it as write-only language. Looking at the source code 6 months after the project end, I felt as if I were reading Greek. Even when writing Forth, I always kept a stack diagram next to each page of source so I could visualize the stack. Never again.
