Review:
Starting FORTH has been the classic Forth tutorial and textbook since its first release. Many experienced programmers have commented on its concise utility and completeness. Beginners will find a carefully planned introduction to the Forth programming language that will prepare them for other books like Forth Application Techniques and Forth Programmer's Handbook.
FORTH, Inc. and the book's author, Leo Brodie, thank the global community for its continued enthusiasm for this book. Many have sought a new copy, a used copy, or have asked for a reprinting. It is our pleasure to now present this online edition, with great appreciation for work done by Marcel Hendrix to generate a web version on which these pages were based.
Notes about this online edition:
Changes made by FORTH, Inc. to Marcel's version were primarily related to internet coding standards and visual presentation. We also restored the book's original illustrations here, in most cases. The following notes are also relevant and important to those familiar with the original edition.
