I'm curious which applications account for the majority of the BASIC code? That's a surprising statistic (to me). Ron K Jeffries --- Ron K. Jeffries 805-567-4670 On Sat, Nov 28, 2015 at 5:35 AM, The Beez wrote: > .. that compared to five years ago: > > 1. The amount

.. that compared to five years ago: 1. The amount of C code (in KLOC) has diminished significantly.. (about 15%) 2. The amount of Forth lines has more than doubled.. 3. The amount of BASIC code (in KLOC) actually EXCEEDS the amount of C code? 4. The total amount of code (over all languages) is

Dear Mike, I got very little here to work with. First I assume you started 4tH and entered the editor (you won't get "OK" otherwise). Then you pressed CRTL-D for some reason. Note I can't reproduce this behavior. Under my stuff (which is the latest SVN) it just shows the next "OK", it doesn't

hi all, 1. sources compiled under latest openbsd, trivial code working. Ctrl-D (to exit) prints OK forever in loop. 2. under linux it just exits. Plz, take care. Mike

Hi 4tH-ers! Since it's not core 4tH, I don't list fixing these bugs in the Changelog. It was in CONTINUE which I don't use too often. The thing doesn't crash, it just goes haywire, spitting out all kinds of unrelated error messages. But it is fixed. The reason it could stay there so long was

Hi 4tH-ers! Yes, I do that every now and then. Just because I know people are actually using it - and every now and then I come up with useful enhancements. I had reserved quite a few delimiters because before the day of functions we only had operators. I've always been able to emulate binary

Hi 4tH-ers! It was not too log ago that I realized we had nothing for Numerical Integration. Well, that has been rectified. We now got Simpson1/3, Simpson3/8, Simpson Composite and Gauss Legendre. Due to the speed and precision required only in ANS float version. Code in SVN. Signing off. This

Hi 4tH-ers! Just a little hint. I've seen people try to outsmart the compiler by writing code like this: 10 ' val >body +! Well.. Don't! It will compile to worse code then when you just go with the flow. Let's see what the compiler makes out of this 10 value a 15 ' a >body +! \ method
