* Misc-Stack-Scripts

This contains many random stack based programs I've created over the

years.

** Factor Specific

- I like to symlink the Factor directory to "factor/work", so that

  scaffold creates the work for me. Further it prevents factor from

  failing half way through dumping an image.

  + This is unnecessary if one uses the =.factor-roots= and calls

    =scaffold-vocab= when creating a new vocabulary!

** Interesting Projects

- The most interesting programs are in the =Factor= sub-directory. And

  not all of them are interesting.

  + _Projects_

    * allocators

      - Contains code dealing with various memory allocation

        strategies.

      - Shows off how Factor deals with =alien= functions and how to

        communicate between factor and c efficiently.

    * misc/padding

      - This one simply shows off padding in C structus easily via

        Factor. Inspecting the values created in the repl is nice.

    * tax

      - This is just a little program I've been using that does tax

        calculations for the Taiwanese tax system. I also use this to

        calculate monthly expenses, probably only of interest to me.

    * compiling-lisp/unary

      - This is an unfinished project, however it was my first attempt

        at using the =alien= function interface in =Factor=. With that

        said, it does showcase =Factor='s assembler and marking

        regions as executable

  + _Unfinished and not of interest_

    * finger-tree

      - Currently this does nothing, but does showcase the =match= and

        =VARIANT:= capabilities of factor

    * queue

      - More =VARIANT:=. Ι believe Ι was interested in implementing

        purely functional data structures at this time.

    * first

      - This is my very first factor file and code. It is akin to

        watching a child learn how to walk for the first time, however

        the =quicksort= function is cool.

      - In the future I'll create a =playground= similar to smalltalk

        for my various throwaway code.

    * michelson

      - Ι wanted to make a faster michelson compliant code in

        =Factor=, would be nicer than using the normal interpreter in

        =OCaml=.
