In case you haven't heard, Factor just had a new stable release, and is tons of fun for postfix enthusiasts.
I never understood how concatenative programmers can hold the current state of the stack in their head and never get confused about what is where, especially when changing complex code.
Haha I'm still working that out for sure. I guess a combination of comments, a good debugger, practice, patterns such as making many very small well defined functions, and frankly a bunch of the people being geniuses (myself certainly excluded).
Thanks, i hadn't heard oft Factor before, it looks interesting. I'm more of a LISP and FP Person but always wanted to properly learn a stack based language, Factor seems like a nice alternative to Forth for that purpose.
