## Language Overview

### Forth Comparison

Niko is very similar to Forth:
stack manipulation core eval loop,
dictionary structure and many
syntax elements come from it.

Niko differences from Forth are:
- all values are vectors
- words are represented as vectors too (lisp like)
- Niko doesn't try to self-host
- low-level concepts such as return stack are not exposed
