FORTH

A micro compiler for the FORTH programming language

I wanted to learn more about FORTH and given how little info there is online writing an interpreter seemed like a good way to learn something.

Quick start

➜  forth git:(master) ✗ dune exec bin/main.exe                 
---------------------------------------
<< FORTH >>
10 DUP DUP + DUMP
[ 10 20 ]

Example

# Forth> "5 DUP +";;
- : token list = [INT 10]

# Forth> "5 DUMP 6 DUMP + DUMP 7 DUMP 8 DUMP + DUMP";;
[ 5 ]
[ 6 5 ]
[ 11 ]
[ 7 11 ]
[ 8 7 11 ]
[ 15 11 ]
- : unit = ()
