ok i think you are confused because i didn't say WHAT we put on the stack?
Rapture(11:03:24)
but where can you see the stack (table, list) ?
mirrorbird(11:03:01)
you don't need line numbers if you have a stack

ah i had a good laugh when you said: hugs you, my arms are still burning. lol
Rapture(11:02:22)
what is stack overflow. uh. pls stop. my brain is still burning from your last kiss. lol
Rapture(11:02:09)
but why does it work without line numbers. a basic program is also commands that work from top to bottom , like a stack

unless some malicious demoscener messes with your stack, that makes perfect sense
mirrorbird(10:59:44)
what you do is: "PUSH" (on the stack) your current location. then you do the work (at some other address), then you POP (off stack) the address where you came from (we call that a pointer). and you go back to wherever that says

i used it in 80s too but it was confusing. i never jotted down anything on a paper, was all in my head, THAT'S WHY it got confusing fast. A=9 (ehh.. what was a again hmm. hehe not pro-coding)
