<p>Glenafer: </p> <hr /> <div>{{Wikify}}<br /> {{stub}}<br /> The operator stack is defined between (OPS) and (OPBase). The OS uses this area for storing information, along with the FPS, for conditional statements and loops in TI-BASIC.<br /> <br /> Due to extremely poor programming in the OS, it is the cause of the well-known memory leaks which can occur if a programmer uses a Goto statement within a loop or an If:Then statement. In a nutshell, it moves the OPS and FPS by nine bytes every time a push to each occurs, which happens when a conditional is entered. This can cause a slowdown (slowly becomes more to move) and memory leaks (the nine bytes added above). The FPS are not accounted for, or are 'leaked'.<br /> <br /> Very little is currently known about the OPS since TI has not documented it, but research is underway.</div>
