FORTH Lessons

These lessons are for people who like to learn how to use FORTH to solve
practical problems.  They are all based on F-PC FORTH system for 80x86
machines running under DOS.

Dr. Haskell first developed "The FORTH Course" which was used in his EE
classroom.  Later Dr. Ting filled in with the first three lessons for the
beginners.
The First Course, C. H. Ting
An introductory course on F-PC for people new to Forth.  Six lessons cover
topics like input/output, stack operations, math operations, and
programming.  Many examples are offered to guide self-study.  Manual and
disk.

The Second Course, C. H. Ting
Subtitle "Input Output Exercises".  6 easy lessons to teach Forth using input
and output problems as exercises.  Include a floating point calculator, VGA
graphics, printer control, music on PC, stepper motor control, and a traffic
controller.

The Third Course, C. H. Ting
Subtitle "Right to Assemble".  6 Easy lessons to teach people how to use
Forth to assemble machine instructions to optimize applications.  Examples
are DTMF, data compression, power graphics, Mandelbrot plots, interrupts
and floating point coprocessor.

The Forth Course, Richard H. Haskell
A self learning tutorial based on FPC 3.50.  11 machine loadable lessons
lead you from Forth fundamentals to 8086 interrupt services at your own
pace.  Invaluable in getting yourself familiar with the very massive FPC
system.  Manual and disk.
