GitHub (source code for all languages), also linked above.

The GitHub says "50 lines of code" but the largest example is 74 lines excluding whitespace and comments.

Very cool. To be honest most of these languages (except maybe Lisp and BASIC) are pretty awful. I can't imagine writing anything in them. Especially K. That's got to result from some form of brain damage...

It’s only 7 bytes of code. !10 returns a list of numbers 0 to 9. 1+!10 adds 1 to each of them resulting in a list [1, 2, …, 10]. Finally /1+!10 applies * verb with scan adverb and returns 123...*10 which is a factorial of 10.

But it processes arrays of numbers in such an elegant way what no other language can compete with it (well, maybe numpy).

Uhm yeah or maybe MATLAB? I mean I mainly like MATLAB because of its unbeatable plotting abilities, but even MATLAB can do prod(1:10). I am very happy to spend 3 extra bytes on that readability improvement!

Hello!

This is the current Lemmy equivalent of https://www.reddit.com/r/ProgrammingLanguages/.

The content and rules are the same here as they are over there. Taken directly from the /r/ProgrammingLanguages overview:

This community is dedicated to the theory, design and implementation of programming languages.

Be nice to each other. Flame wars and rants are not welcomed. Please also put some effort into your post.

This isn't the right place to ask questions such as "What language should I use for X", "what language should I learn", and "what's your favorite language". Such questions should be posted in /c/learn_programming or /c/programming.

This is the right place for posts like the following:

See /r/ProgrammingLanguages for specific examples
