Have you been overproductive lately?

Tired of having to deal with the pleasantries of languages like C, with its pointers, functions, and multiple types of arithmetic?

Tried using Brainf*ck but even that didn't quench your thirst for "hard" programming? Tried Malbolge but prefer unquestionable Turing-completeness?

Then maybe Boolf*ck is the programming language for you. "Weaker, less useful, more futile: Boolf*ck," recommends William Sharkey.

Here is the "Hello, world!" program:

Code: Show/Hide

Sorry for being a couple of weeks late.

Try Haskell, a fun functional language. For example, to define a factorial function such that

factorial 0 = 1
factorial n = n * factorial (n -1)

one simply writes the code,

Code: Show/Hide

factorial 0 = 1
factorial n = n * factorial (n - 1)

But you didn't keep the compiler small! Gosh, the language is useless now...

Compiler?

Not like a 50KB binary as compared to brainf*ck's 200 byte binary is bloated or anything...
