-\ access to the word which we are currently compiling through the LATEST pointer so we
-\ can use that to compile a recursive call.

-\ CONTROL STRUCTURES ----------------------------------------------------------------------
-\
-\ So far we have defined only very simple definitions. Before we can go further, we really need to
-\ make some control structures, like IF ... THEN and loops. Luckily we can define arbitrary control
-\ structures directly in FORTH.
-\
-\ Please note that the control structures as I have defined them here will only work inside compiled
-\ words. If you try to type in expressions using IF, etc. in immediate mode, then they won't work.
-\ Making these work in immediate mode is left as an exercise for the reader.
-
-\ condition IF true-part THEN rest
-\ -- compiles to: --> condition 0BRANCH OFFSET true-part rest
-\ where OFFSET is the offset of 'rest'
-\ condition IF true-part ELSE false-part THEN
-\ -- compiles to: --> condition 0BRANCH OFFSET true-part BRANCH OFFSET2 false-part rest
-\ where OFFSET if the offset of false-part and OFFSET2 is the offset of rest
-
-\ IF is an IMMEDIATE word which compiles 0BRANCH followed by a dummy offset, and places
-\ the address of the 0BRANCH on the stack. Later when we see THEN, we pop that address
-\ off the stack, calculate the offset, and back-fill the offset.
+\ CONTROL STRUCTURES ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
: IF IMMEDIATE
' 0BRANCH , \ compile 0BRANCH
HERE @ \ save location of the offset on the stack
SWAP !
;
-\ BEGIN loop-part condition UNTIL
-\ -- compiles to: --> loop-part condition 0BRANCH OFFSET
-\ where OFFSET points back to the loop-part
-\ This is like do { loop-part } while (condition) in the C language
: BEGIN IMMEDIATE
HERE @ \ save location on the stack
;
, \ compile the offset here
;
-\ BEGIN loop-part AGAIN
-\ -- compiles to: --> loop-part BRANCH OFFSET
-\ where OFFSET points back to the loop-part
-\ In other words, an infinite loop which can only be returned from with EXIT
: AGAIN IMMEDIATE
' BRANCH , \ compile BRANCH
HERE @ - \ calculate the offset back
, \ compile the offset here
;
-\ BEGIN condition WHILE loop-part REPEAT
-\ -- compiles to: --> condition 0BRANCH OFFSET2 loop-part BRANCH OFFSET
-\ where OFFSET points back to condition (the beginning) and OFFSET2 points to after the whole piece of code
-\ So this is like a while (condition) { loop-part } loop in the C language
: WHILE IMMEDIATE
' 0BRANCH , \ compile 0BRANCH
HERE @ \ save location of the offset2 on the stack
SWAP ! \ and back-fill it in the original location
;
-\ UNLESS is the same as IF but the test is reversed.
-\
-\ Note the use of [COMPILE]: Since IF is IMMEDIATE we don't want it to be executed while UNLESS
-\ is compiling, but while UNLESS is running (which happens to be when whatever word using UNLESS is
-\ being compiled -- whew!). So we use [COMPILE] to reverse the effect of marking IF as immediate.
-\ This trick is generally used when we want to write our own control words without having to
-\ implement them all in terms of the primitives 0BRANCH and BRANCH, but instead reusing simpler
-\ control words like (in this instance) IF.
: UNLESS IMMEDIATE
' NOT , \ compile NOT (to reverse the test)
[COMPILE] IF \ continue by calling the normal IF
;
-\ COMMENTS ----------------------------------------------------------------------
-\
-\ FORTH allows ( ... ) as comments within function definitions. This works by having an IMMEDIATE
-\ word called ( which just drops input characters until it hits the corresponding ).

+ HERE @

- From now on we can use ( ... ) for comments.
-
- STACK NOTATION ----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- In FORTH style we can also use ( ... -- ... ) to show the effects that a word has on the
- parameter stack. For example:
-
- ( n -- ) means that the word consumes an integer (n) from the parameter stack.
- ( b a -- c ) means that the word uses two integers (a and b, where a is at the top of stack)
- and returns a single integer (c).
- ( -- ) means the word has no effect on the stack
-)
-
( Some more complicated stack examples, showing the stack notation. )

: TUCK ( x y -- y x y ) DUP ROT ;
: DECIMAL ( -- ) 10 BASE ! ;
: HEX ( -- ) 16 BASE ! ;
-(
- PRINTING NUMBERS ----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- The standard FORTH word . (DOT) is very important. It takes the number at the top
- of the stack and prints it out. However first I'm going to implement some lower-level
- FORTH words:
-
- U.R ( u width -- ) which prints an unsigned number, padded to a certain width
- U. ( u -- ) which prints an unsigned number
- .R ( n width -- ) which prints a signed number, padded to a certain width.
-
- For example:
- -123 6 .R
- will print out these characters:
- <space> <space> - 1 2 3
-
- In other words, the number padded left to a certain number of characters.
-
- The full number is printed even if it is wider than width, and this is what allows us to
- define the ordinary functions U. and . (we just set width to zero knowing that the full
- number will be printed anyway).
-
- Another wrinkle of . and friends is that they obey the current base in the variable BASE.
- BASE can be anything in the range 2 to 36.
+( Compute absolute value. )
+: ABS ( n -- m)
+ dup 0< if
+ negate
+ then
+;
- While we're defining . &c we can also define .S which is a useful debugging tool. This
- word prints the current stack (non-destructively) from top to bottom.
