One of my very favourite programming books. Using it, together with "Threaded Interpretive Languages" https://www.amazon.co.uk/Threaded-Interpretive-Languages-R-G-Loeliger/dp/007038360X https://www.amazon.co.uk/Threaded-Interpretive-Languages-R-G... I wrote a couple of Forth implementations in Z80 assembler back in the 1980s, and a Forth-like language for an Adventure writing system I created when I was first learning C++.

- seg_lol 6y agoThere is no reason to pay that crazy money for that book, it is available on libgen. There are so many books in the BYTE magazine back catalog, and who knows who the rights holders are as the UBM is defunct [1]. I talked to some people at CMP a couple years ago, it sounded like, at least from them, that they had almost no archives of BYTE material. What you can get on Ebay and the IA are it fwiw. I have three copies, mostly so when I loan them out and if it doesn't come back I won't be bummed. But they cost only 5-9$ at the time.

- seg_lol 6y agoI doubt this would ever exist unless someone transcribed it and relaid it out. It probably never existed in a consumable digital form.
