This looks somewhat like perl...

[–] lime@feddit.nu 12 points 5 hours ago

this looks like uiua!

[–] Arghblarg@lemmy.ca 9 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

That is, I'm guessing, either BQN or Uiua?


I have dabbled in APL, and it can be written either as 'line noise' like this, or as readable as any other language, with comments, control blocks and clear variable names. Let's just say I have ... opinions on tacit programming like this.

&fras is certainly Uiua, File Read as String

[–] seraphine@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 4 hours ago

that is not enchantment table </3

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

Yeah, doesn't look like APL to me, but I don't know it well enough to tell for certain.

Either way, that much code in a language that is at least as concise as APL... what is this? a full office suite?

That looks like what'd happen if one put APL in a blender. I don't know who came up with whatever that is, but they need to get outside more. Or, you know, just once maybe.
