/prog/ - INVENT THE WORST PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE

Name: Anonymous 2006-07-09 1:18

1. you can define keywords, operators, grammar rules, general concepts endorsed by the language, etc.
2. do your worst
3. we are starting from the ground up, so it is prohibited to import complete keyword sets from an existing language (no OK, ALL JAVA KEYWORDS, THREAD OVER, HURRRRRRRRRR)
4. and we need a name for this language as well

Prefix global variables with @@, and class variables with self. Whitespace is significant. Typing is entirely static, except for globals. Overloading is mandatory. Memory-handling is explicit stack manipulation.

Yes, it must be massively overengineered.

To make up for the shit static typing, make 50 different types of iterators. Don't allow default values, and all library calls require use of imported constants, not integers.

Name: Anonymous 2006-07-09 11:16

Use a different syntax for assigning objects vs assigning primitives, eg:
set foo = bar '//object
a = b '//primitive
Let objects have a default field which is referenced automatically if you use a = b, so instead of throwing an error it just gives weird hard to track bugs.

Arrays are indexed from 1, except for certain library functions.

Name: Anonymous 2006-07-09 11:24

Line numbers. No flow control other than IF and GOTO. Static typing. Hungarian notation is mandatory as it's actually part of the language. Variable names limited to 4 characters besides prefix. No automatic conversion from one type to another. Variables are global by default. No structures nor objects. No user-defined functions; must use either eval() (eval still requires line numbers!) and a special hack to receive function parameters in an array. If functions want to return something, they need to use one of a set of global stacks (there's one per each different data type). Explicit memory management with segmented memory (segments are 4 KB each, can only allocate segments, variables can't span over several segments). Arrays are actually variable variables, so ia[1] is the same as ia1 and i[a] is the same as ia. Lines limited to 80 characters. No string literals; must use hexadecimal. Most syntactic elements are optional and infered by "DWIM" rules. For example, you can type "+", and it means add 1 to i_, because + is usually used with integers; on the left we use i_ which is the default integer variable; on the right we cannot use i_ because we already used it so we use 1 (because 0 would have little sense). User must learn all of this to use it.

The only characteristic of viagra: makes your penis erect, therefore it makes it bigger. The only thing that gets bigger in programming that I can think of is a unit of measure.

Obviously we must ignore all other units of measure and make VIAGRA synonymous with bytes. Allocate VIAGRAs of memory.

Name: Anonymous 2006-07-10 5:22

If we have VIAGRA, we must have SEX.

A language that makes casting integers to longs implicit is too easy. We must make any such operation explicitly require the SEX (Sign EXtend) operator.

The opposite (long -> int, int -> char, etc) is the entirely arbitrary BOBBITIZE.

Name: Anonymous 2006-07-10 6:59

All arithmetic operations must be written in either prefix or postfix notation. Only both notations can be used; the compiler determines weather prefix or postfix has been used in any given expression.
Eg: the expression 3 + 5 * 20 / (7 - 2) can only be written as
/ + 3 * 5 20 - 7 2 (prefix) OR
3 5 20 * + 7 2 - / (postfix)

Also, compiler errors should return line numbers in binary, and the actual error descriptor should be in the form of a short riddle.

string literals should be represented as linked lists of chars thusly:
((H((e((l((l((o(( ((W((o((r((l((d((!((NULL))))))))))))))))))))))))))

(note that the parentheses tokens are double parentheses so that you know they are not a literal parenthesis.)

this representation has the obvious advantage of allowing you to concatenate two strings in O(1) instead of O(length of second string).

main features:
line numbers
hungarian notation
no whitespace
no functions (only gotos, arguments are passed with global library variables)
all numbers must be in octal
string encoding is EBCDIC
strings use single quotes, not double
no comments allowed
variables are pointers
too late i realized that all caps must be used, no lowercase

finer points:
keywords are used with the form: keyword[thing being modified by keyword]
if-statements work thus: if[line number to jump to if false]statement to test
assignation goes: value to be assigned :== where to assign it; backwards of most languages
testing equality also uses :==
for initializing nulltermstringBottlesOfBeer, i showed how you could use NulltermstringLength, but for the other strings i just coded the size directly cause it's easier (in this case)

keywords so far:
inport (not import)
variable
dereference
goto

Been done already. See INTERCAL for an example. Numbers are input as two decimal octets, there's COME FROM, you have to say PLEASE in the source often enough, file input and output occurs in roman numerals. (or was it ONE TWO NINE THREE SEVEN and so forth?) Conditional execution of code happens by suspending and reinstating execution of certain COME FROM and/or other lines.

Yeah, all been done before.

i am a poor c-tard, explain how these 50-odd iterators would work for me?

more ideas:

the parsing of nulltermstrings will be done by functions like NulltermstringToUint, which will take the uintNulltermstringToUintSource'th character of nulltermstringNulltermstringToUint and place it in uintNulltermstringToUintDestination.

however, there will also be a stackstring datatype in which strings are uints stored on a stack. stackstrings can then be parsed by popping between stacks, analysing and modifing as we go.

(and now that we've defined string handling functions, we can write quines!)

obviously, converting between types is not automatic, but must be done with functions. uintNumber:==sintNumber is an error, we must use the UintToSint function.

allocating memory has been done, and i like the idea of using strictly segmented memory, and allocating only single segments, but the segment size should probably be something more like 256 (or 16?) bytes rather than 4K, as this would make string handling much more difficult.

another thing that should be worked out is memory deallocation. should this just use another function (e.g. free() in c), or can we come up with a better method?

oh, and we should probably have a method of self-modification.

finally, we still need a name for this language. i've been calling it 4code as a working name, but that's not a very impressive name

all keywords and functions will start with either l (L) or I (capital i) followed by five numbers. bracket equivelents in C will be } to open a block and { to close it. line comments begin with #\#/* . there are no block comments. also, things must be indented with 9 spaces AND have the brackets.

everything must have a ! at the end of it. variables are referenced in strings with $[variablenameq

I98276! l39732!(l82765!) } #\#/* defining a function
   I32948! l82765!; #\#/* print the argumnt

>oh, and we should probably have a method of self-modification.

this is a REQUIRED FEATURE of this language, for sure!!
explicit support for self-modifying code

proposal:
there is a pseudovariable/function that returns the address of the "program counter" or currently executing instruction. something like "instrptr"

there is another (library?) function that takes a block of code as an argument and returns its machine language opcodes.

using these and function pointers we could have a lot of fun. buffer overflows would actually need to be necessary parts of your program.

Name: Anonymous 2006-07-16 13:21

the letter E inside a string causes the remaining part of the string (until Q for Quit) to be evaluated as program code. there is no way to disable this other than to escape those letters with four backslashes.

Name: Anonymous 2006-07-16 22:28

To program in the language, you must first define all commands you will use. To define them, you must only use the language you are writing in. Therefore, the code will reference itself. There is only one pre-written command, which is to store the information in a random (even if it's already in use) memory location. There can only be one memory location in use by the language at a time. It will be hailed for its space-saving capabilities, and forced on all programmers.

All types are objects, and all variables are pointers. All operators are called exactly the same way functions are. For example, to add x to y:

x->+(y);

Furthermore, there is no heap. There is no such thing as a return value for a function, but rather, what is returned is the object called; i.e. the above code returns the pointer to 'x'.

So to perform (x+y)/(u-v) and store it in z, you do:

int a,b,z; (z->+((a->+(x))->+y))->/((b->+(u))->-v);

Anything .NET. VBScript, JScript, whatever. Just fucking sucks.
Other than that, let's see you one needs to make a really bad language..... You would need to use multiple file types that achieve mainly nothing, or not much. So let's go with .f for functions and classes, and .i for their implementation, and .head for globals
Variables created in their implementaion files (.i) can only be (re)used in that same file. i.e Variable q is created in imp.i, can only be used in imp.i . Exception: if q is a global, declared in a .head file.
What else...
The language is only ported to Fedora Core 2 (Linux), and is oddly still being heavily developed. There is no garbage collection, and everything instantly demands 90% of your availible system resources.

Creating an executable is nearly impossible; you have to give the compailer random, useless flags just to create a .compiled file, which in turn then needs to be compiled into the final executeable.

Result: WTF is wrong with me?

you MUST type variables in diffrent caps everytime you refrence it.

time=0
TIME=2
Time=tIme+2

if TiME=4

repeating the variable in the same caps is a SYNTAX ERROR

You know, this makes some sense, actually. It enforces the principle that variables with larger scopes should have more descriptive names.

No variables, Instead, you must allocate memory addresses manually. Additionally, you can only allocate data to one byte at a time.

Here's what I got:
* calls a numbered primitives.
@ calls a value on the stack.
[ defines a function.
~ within a function defines arguments.
$ calls a function.
^ is an if statement. In needs to be followed by at least one [] block.
% is else.

*0 = eqauls
*1 = plus
*2 = minus
*3 = mult
*4 = div
*5 = mod
*6 = ==
*7 = >
*8 = <
*9 = ||
*10 = &&

I once implemented this. It's insanely easy and really satisfying.

Oh and # is return

Factorials:
!this defines a function on the 0 place on the function stack with the ability to calculate factorials
!there are already no need for parens because it's polish notation
[ 0 ~0 ^(*10 @0 0) [ # 1 ] % [ # *3 @0 $0 *2 @0 1 ] ]
!this is how you call it
$0 5
returned 120
