Hugh,
If you run the benchmark from the UI, no output will be displayed
until the test word completes. This is because Factor uses
co-operative threading and your word does not yield. This is not a big
in flush (in fact, writing to the UI output stream, flush has no
effect).

My understanding of the FLUSH word is that it is supposed to flush the
output buffer before proceeding. The documentation says: "Waits for any
pending output on output-stream to complete."
This isn't happening on my Windows system (the 10-20-09 download). I noticed
this in regard to Slava's ver
Here is a new version of LC53: www.rosycrew.org/LC53.4th
I removed the assembly-language because it tended to clutter up the
source-code. It was originally included to provide a baseline benchmark, but
that is not particularly interesting and assembly-language is beyond the
scope of the book th
There are three cases where this can come up. First of all, inheritance;
TUPLE: animal ;
TUPLE: cat < animal ;
cat new animal? . => t
cat new cat? . => t
Here the new instance of cat is both a cat and an animal.
The second is unions and mixins:
TUPLE: chicken < animal ;
TUPLE: cow < animal ;

If you look at the docs for "each" or "nth" in a fresh image, they
show up as subsections of the $subsections word, because the
$subsections word contains these $subsections definitions in its
$examples section:
{ $examples
{ $markup-example { $subsections "sequences" nth each } }
} ;
Hi,
one the of things that makes factor great is it's documentation
system. In your case, you should find all the explanations you want in
the "Objects" help article, and more specifically in the "Classes"
help article. If you have factor installed, you must have already used
the help system. Just
Hello,
at the moment I´m writing a paper about the object-oriented system in Factor
for my studies.
I´ve got a question about an object being an instance of more than one
class. Can you give me a short example where this is realized or any further
information? I don´t get it at all ;)
Thanks a lo

You could make an interim implementation that uses pipes to
