I From Mark Wonnacott: Analogue Computers: The First Declarative Programming. http://ragzouken.com/compsci/languages.pdf I The first machine computable delcarative program is within the earliest mechanical computer, the Antikythera mechanism (c. 70 BC). Changing the date with the mechanism's hand-crank turned a complex arrangement of gears to compute astronomical positions. Different gearing rations between connected gears dictate the relationships between them and ultimately between the date and calculated astronomical positions. These relationships are invariantly satisfied by the turning of the gears, making the gears a form of declarative program.

Professor Noel Sharkey has argued that it is quite likely that it was an early programmable automata and has produced a possible reconstruction of the mechanism; it has a programmable drum machine with pegs (cams) that bump into little levers that operated the percussion. The drummer could be made to play different rhythms and different drum patterns if the pegs were moved around. According to Charles B. Fowler, the automata were a "robot band" which performed "more than fifty facial and body actions during each musical selection."

    BF y el asombroso mundo de los lenguajes esotéricos Narciso Martí Oliet Universidad Complutense de Madrid, 2018 Resumen Entre los miles de lenguajes de programación que existen, hay una especie que se ha hecho más visible en los últimos años, la de los lenguajes esotéricos. Se trata de lenguajes que no pretenden facilitarle la vida al programador o al menos facilitar la programación de ciertos sistemas, sino precisamente todo lo contrario; en la creación de muchos de ellos ha primado la diversión sobre la utilidad. En esta presentación veremos un panorama general de esta especie de lenguajes, prestando un poco más de atención a BF, uno de los lenguajes más famosos entre ellos.

  • Hackim 2014 Write-Up Author: Nick Clark Trivia 1
    HackIM 2014 Write-Up Author: Nick Clark Trivia 1 This esoteric programming language uses AWSUM THX and O NOES as error handling. A simple google search leads us to LOLCODE as the answer. Trivia 2 What software is used to hack into ENCOM's computer system? Googling ENCOM leads us to the fictional company within the movie Tron. Going to Tron’s Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tron) we see that the main actor, “Jeff Bridges also portrays Clu (Codified Likeness Utility), a hacking program intended to find evidence of Dillinger's theft in the mainframe.” CLU is the answer to this challenge. Trivia 3 Outcome of Stealth Project to make coffee. Searching for Stealth Project “Coffee” leads us to this page: http://www.sis.pitt.edu/~icucart/fshi/java_introduction.html . In the conclusion of the story we see that the project ultimately became Java. Java is the answer. Trivia 4 Successor of the DEAD persistent object format Googling DEAD persistent object format leads us to the Wikipedia article on the Java class file: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_class_file . Under Magic Number we see the story behind DEAD and that it was replaced by RMI. RMI is the answer. Trivia 5 Oheebhtuf O6700 "havavgvnyvmrq" zrzbel (48-ovg) My first guess was to google the whole thing, but that led to no results. I then googled havavgvnyvmrq which lead to the Caeser Cipher word for uninitialized (http://easyciphers.com/uninitialized). This whole phrase has been ciphered. To decipher it I used http://web.forret.com/tools/rot13.asp and just pasted in the cipher text.

  • Meowlang Programming Language Proposal
    Meowlang Programming Language Proposal Language Guru: Carolyn Chen (cec2192) Manager: Megan Frenkel (mmf2171) System Architects: William Penney (wjp2114) & Lauren Pham (lyp2106) Tester: Michelle Lin (ml4080) Programming Languages and Translators, Spring 2021 1 Introduction and Overview Meowlang is an esoteric programming language inspired by LOLCODE, a language created by Adam Lindsay based on internet lolspeak. Our goal is to push the boundaries of language design in a creative, humorous way while still providing functionality and usability. Considering the nature of internet lolspeak (deliberately misspelled natural language), Meowlang improves on the safety and functionality of LOLCODE. Firstly in safety, unlike LOLCODE's dynamic typing, Meowlang enforces strong static typing to reinforce the integrity of user's code. Secondly in functionality, Meowlang provides an implementation of arrays and limited sup- port for object-oriented programming, both which LOLCODE currently lacks. Both goals for improving on LOLCODE's functionality (arrays and limited OOP) involve implementing entirely new features to the original language. We hope to implement arrays because they are necessary, versatile building blocks and to implement OOP because it illustrates the creativity of the esolang. We would greatly appreciate feedback on the feasibility of this plan. TLDR: Meowlang is an imperative, high-level, object-oriented programming language with static scoping, strong static typing and strict left-to-right evaluation order. 2 Language Paradigm Meowlang is a pared-down version of LOLCODE, sharing similar syntax, but with some changes to its lan- guage paradigm. Meowlang shares similarities with both C and Java, with its lack of garbage collection and object-oriented programming features, respectively.

    Esolangs as Experiential Art Daniel Temkin New York, NY [email protected] Abstract Languages like LOLCODE and INTERCAL both make Esolangs (for “esoteric programming languages”) are a class of strange use of keywords, although with very different languages made by programmers at play, not intended for approaches. INTERCAL, created in 1972 (and generally practical use. Ben Olmstead (creator of the Malbolge language) considered the first esolang), functions as a parody of describes them as “pushing the boundaries of programming, languages of the time. It asks the programmer to beg and but not in useful directions.” [1] This paper looks at how these plead with the machine, personifying the compiler as a strange languages function as experiential art pieces, with capricious autocrat who allows programs to compile or similarities to Oulipean systems and Fluxus event scores. not based on how much groveling is done. Its language is cryptic and confusing, a puzzle for the programmer. Keywords [3] Esolangs, Esoteric Programming Languages, Language, Concept Art, Fluxus, Ouipo, Code Art Introduction Esolangs have been described as jokes, parodies, impractical research, scenarios of the improbable, or what can only be defined as programming languages by butchering the very definition of a programming Figure 2. Hello World in LOLCODE (Adam Lindsay) language. [2] LOLCODE (Adam Lindsay, 2007) personifies the "lolcats" meme. Starting every program with "HAI" and ending with "KTHXBYE", the script in between is full of the familiar mix of baby talk and internet slang of lolcats. [4] These languages ridicule the authority of the machine through the actual text of the programs created within them.
