Yup, me too. I'd recommend that anyone with a serious interest in programming should learn Forth (and write a Forth system from scratch): I'll probably never use it in anger, but it made me think about programming in a very different way.

(Also, curiously, gave me an increased respect for K&R C, which allows minimalist programming in a way that ANSI C doesn't.)



How does K&R C allow more minimalist programming?
