22、c list of words 204 0 ISO/IEC ISO/IEC 15145:1997(EI Foreword IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of IS0 or IEC participate in the d
23、evelopment of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. IS0 and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-gover
24、nmental, in liason with IS0 and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, IS0 and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publi
25、cation as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. International Standard ISO/lEC 15145 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 22, Programming languages, their environments and system
26、 software interfaces. Annexes A to F of this International Standard are for information only. V 0 ISOAEC ISOAEC 15145:1997(E) Introduction The purpose of this International Standard is to promote the portability of Forth programs for use on a wide variety of computing systems, to facilitate the comm
27、unication of programs, programming techniques, and ideas among Forth programmers, and to serve as a basis for the future evolution of the Forth language. Forth is a language for direct communication between human beings and machines. Using natural-language diction and machine-oriented syntax, Forth
28、provides an economical, productive environment for interactive compilation and execution of programs. Forth also provides low-level access to computer-controlled hardware, and the ability to extend the language itself. This extensibility allows the language to be quickly expanded and adapted to spec
29、ial needs and different hardware systems. Forth was invented by Mr. Charles Moore to increase programmer productivity without sacrificing machine efficiency. Forth is a layered environment containing the elements of a computer language as well as those of an operating system and a machine monitor. T
30、his extensible, layered environment provides for highly interactive program development and testing. In the interests of transportability of application software written in Forth, standardization efforts began in the mid- 1970s by an international group of users and implementors who adopted the name
31、 “Forth Standards Team”. This effort resulted in the Forth-77 Standard. As the language continued to evolve, an interim Forth-78 Standard was published by the Forth Standards Team. Following Forth Standards Team meetings in 1979, the Forth-79 Standard was published in 1980. Major changes were made b
32、y the Forth Standards Team in the Forth-83 Standard, which was published in 1983. The first meeting of the Technical Committee on Forth Programming Systems was convened by the Organizing Committee of the X3J 14 Forth Technical Committee on August 3, 1987, and has met subsequently on November 1 l- 12

37、Standard System. 1 .I .I Inclusions This International Standard specifies: - the forms that a program written in the Forth language may take; - the rules for interpreting the meaning of a program and its data. 1 .I .2 Exclusions This International Standard does not specify: - the mechanism by which
38、programs are transformed for use on computing systems; - the operations required for setup and control of the use of programs on computing systems; - the method of transcription of programs or their input or output data to or from a storage medium; - the program and Forth system behavior when the ru
39、les of this International Standard fail to establish an interpretation; - the size or complexity of a program and its data that will exceed the capacity of any specific computing system or the capability of a particular Forth system; - the physical properties of input/output records, files, and unit
40、s; - the physical properties and implementation of storage. 1.2 Document organization 1.2.1 Word sets This International Standard groups Forth words and capabilities into wordsets under a name indicating some shared aspect, typically their common functional area. Each word set may have an extension,
41、 containing words that offer additional functionality. These words are not required in an implementation of the word set. The “Core” word set, defined in clauses 1 through 6, contains the required words and capabilities of a Standard System. The other word sets, defined in clauses 7 through 17, are
42、optional, making it possible to provide Standard Systems with tailored levels of functionality. 1.2.1 .I Text clauses Within each word set, clause 1 contains introductory and explanatory material and clause 2 introduces terms and notation used throughout this International Standard. There are no req
43、uirements in these clauses. Clauses 3 and 4 contain the usage and documentation requirements, respectively, for Standard Systems and Programs, while clause 5 specifies their labeling. ISOllEC 15145:1997(E) 0 ISO/IEC 1.2.1.2 Glossary clauses Clause 6 of each word set specifies the required behavior o
44、f the definitions in the word set and the extensions word set. 1.2.2 Annexes The annexes do not contain any required material. Annex A provides some of the rationale behind the committees decisions in creating this International Standard, as well as implementation examples. It has the same numbering
45、 as the body of this International Standard to make it easy to relate each requirements clause to its rationale clause. Annex B is a short bibliography on Forth. Annex C provides an introduction to Forth. Annex D discusses the compatibility of ANS Forth with earlier Forths, emphasizing the differenc
46、es from Forth 83. Annex E presents some techniques for writing portable programs in ANS Forth. Annex F includes the words from all word sets in a single list, and serves as an index of ANS Forth words. 1.3 Future directions 1.3.1 New technology This International Standard adopts certain words and pr
47、actices that are increasingly found in common practice. New words have also been adopted to ease creation of portable programs. 1.3.2 Obsolescent features This International Standard adopts certain words and practices that cause some previously used words to become obsolescent. Although retained her
48、e because of their widespread use, their use in new implementations or new programs is discouraged, because they may be withdrawn from future revisions of this International Standard. This International Standard designates the following words as obsolescent: 6.2.0060 #TIB 15.6.2.1580 FORGET 6.2.2240
