Forth,
a structured, imperative, reflective, stack-based computer programming language and environment. It performs arithmetical and logical operations on a stack in reverse Polish notation. Forth evolved from Charles H. (Chuck) Moore's programming system from 1958. With Elizabeth Rather, Chuck Moore founded the FORTH, Inc. ^[1] in 1973. Chuck Moore now develops extremely fast, low-power, multi-core chips which use a subset of Forth for their instruction set. They might be an interesting target for a high-powered yet economical dedicated chess computer.
