Well, if you understand registers and CPU-speak in general, it's not
bad. (thinks) actually, I learned Forth first, which made learning
assembler much easier.
It's not the registers, it's keeping track of what's on the stack that
drove most folks crazy. One of the other well-known comments about
Forth was "Forth is a write-only language." I could usually read what
I'd written if I went back to it within a few months, but that was about
the limit.
That descriptor was usually applied to APL. where the 'half-life' for
readability by the author was about half a day.
