Fictional Programming

Name: Anonymous 2007-08-28 12:42 ID:tFd3hz10

What's a good language for fictional programming? I've heard a lot about it but don't know where to start.

Haskell. Learn to troll.

Start with Scheme, move to Haskell.

Scheme is not purely fictional.

I heard that TADS is a pretty good fictional programming language. There's also Inform if TADS doesn't work for you.

What is there to understand?
It's all forced indentation of the code.

Not fictional at all. I've seen source code for a LOLcode interpreter.

OCaml and Haskell are good Functional programming languages to dabble with. Although I recommend OCaml first, since Haskell is a little complicated if you have no prior programming knowledge.

Posting in the wrong thread?

>>18
I think OP made a typo in the thread title. It should read ``Functional'' not ``Fictional.'' Easy misconception.

>>19
OP here, what the hell is functional?

>>7
Interesting. I'll give this a try. (Btw, awesome ID.)

I agree that it's easy to confuse them. They are very similar:
Functional programming languages - programs doesn't do anything (no side effects)
Fictional programming languages - programs doesn't do anything (no compiler/interpretor)

Obviously, fictional programming languages are the easiest to fix - just write a compiler/interpretor. With functional programming languages you're just fucked.

Well, yeah, I know. But the implementations aren't complete, as of yet.

Are you saying that functional programming is like yaoi?

I hereby announce the release of a new list dialect: Yaoi Lisp.
