Trying Martin Tracy's beautiful one-screen ZenMath (Dr. Dobb's Toolbook II) with ZEN 15alpha I only had to change ASCII to [CHAR] to get it running. +--------------------------------+ +-------------------+---------+ ! Input ! ! Stack before outp.! Output ! +--------------------------------+ +-------------------+---------+ ! 3.1416 FLOAT 1.5 FLOAT F* F. ! ! 4712 -3 ! 4.712 ! ! -17. FLOAT -4.5 FLOAT F+ F. ! ! -215 -1 ! -21.5 ! ! 1. FLOAT 3. FLOAT F/ F. ! ! 23210 -12 ! 0.000000023210 +--------------------------------+ +-------------------+---------+ The last result is a little queer, but the prelude ": D2* 2DUP D+ ;" repaired it to "0.3333". I found that the primitives D2* and D2/ don't clear the carry flag before shifting the AX register. --Hannes Teich [reply to: jgt@bbs.forth-ev.de]
