Advent Of Code, daily programming challenges for the holiday season. You can submit solutions for any language you like, including ~~inchomprehensible~~ esoteric ones like in the screenshot
Ah. Thanks.
&fras is certainly Uiua, File Read as String
First time I'm seeing Uiua, and I like it. It's kind of cute, even though I know I'll probably never use it.
However, seeing one of their goals being "code that is as short as possible while remaining readable" is kind of ironic, given how it looks and reads. But I don't mind, it's still pretty adorable.
It looks like it's hell to learn and write. It's possible that once you learn all the glyphs (which IMO adds unneccessary complexity that goes against their goal of being readable), it might be easier to parse. I'm probably not the target audience, though.
this looks like uiua!
I kinda like the idea of Uiua. It's extreme and meme, but the concept is really interesting. I think our language and writing limits us, and in 30-40 years with enhanced interfaces and cognitions, we will be using things like this.
Similar to how ancient Persians used 3D handwriting to convey much more data in compact forms.
AOC is a programmer?
AoC stands for Age of Consent
Our local wizard who casts these spells is @mykl@lemmy.world
I'm more like the sorcerer's apprentice watching my arrays get increasingly out of my control :-)
This looks somewhat like perl...
that is definitely not perl.
omg there's stuff worse than Perl out there?
rude.
There are entire categories of languages less readable than Perl...
Amazing. is Perl like, the countable infinity of unreadable languages or smth?
It's like autism, there's a spectrum. Perl can be very c like. It also can be indistinguishable from actual line noise. Or it can be like roku and not really look like Perl at all. Lol
Your regexp got out of hand.
Does it multiply?
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.
So you did put APL in a blender.
Well, yeah. What else would one do it with it? Set it on fire and scatter the ashes?
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?
It's Uiua
that is not enchantment table </3
