As I like to say: "C is a language that solves a million problems. Forth is a million languages that solve almost nothing." :-P
I've been reading about Forth for 30-40 years. The dual stack is easy to understand. My problem is that I cannot see how control flow works in Forth, e.g. a simple if-then-else.
I think that something as fundamental as an if-then-else should be obvious in a useful language. Heck, it's obvious in assembly language. But not in Forth.
