Tips for golfing in Forth What general tips do you have for golfing in Forth (and its clones)? I'm looking for ideas that can be applied to code golf problems in general that are at least somewhat specific to Forth (e.g. "remove comments" is not an answer).
Avoid explicit loops at all costs

Forth has two looping constructs, x y do ... loop, and lesser known [begin] ... [until] x y where x and y are values for limit and index, or conditions to be noted, respectively.

These are very slow, very wordy (haha) and overall rather bloaty, so only use them if you need to.

Instead, like a proper functional language (which Forth is, really), one should prefer recursivity over explicit loops because it tends to be shorter and makes a better use of the language.
