NewTiny is here V0.0102 - Now with Arrays and String operations (lemmy.world)
submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by waspentalive@lemmy.world to c/esolangs@programming.dev

Sorry for the wall of text...

NewTiny is the next iteration in the tiny family - gone are line numbers and only A..Z for variables - now you can have lines with labels and named variables. The next update did bring named arrays.

Codeburg currently has the most current version

https://codeberg.org/WasPentalive/newtiny.git

Anyone want to run git for me? I am running into so much trouble with Codeberg. I can log into the webui. 2FA works fine. But I can not seem to authenticate properly to a cli git command. I can upload files to the webUI . But I can't get a merge to happen no matter what I do..

I am manually creating versioned .tar.gz with everything for each version of newtiny as it comes out. It is essentially feature complete for V0 Several things planed for V1 if there is any interest.

Download the manual and take a look.

Furchtbar - Life is full of horrors and so should be programming! (github.com)

Furchtbar is a Frankensteinian esolang, stealing ideas from other esolangs for maximized horribleness.

GitHub - pentalive/FPTiny: Floating Point Tiny - an RPN based language for writing programs in (github.com)
submitted 6 months ago by waspentalive@lemmy.one to c/esolangs@programming.dev

Floating Point Tiny is an RPN based esoteric language and is the big brother to Tiny (an integer version.) The source and documentation are available at https://github.com/pentalive/FPTiny

"Floating Point Tiny" does not quite roll off the tongue as well I would like. A better name would be appreciated.

A "Hello, world!" program written in Mazerunner, an esolang in which a rat runs through a maze (infosec.pub)
submitted 6 months ago by MissGutsy@lemmy.blahaj.zone to c/esolangs@programming.dev

Esolangs.org Link

In Mazerunner, your code is a maze which is traversed by a rat that always walks along the left wall. If you don't feed the rat enough cheese, it dies from starvation. If you feed it too quickly, it dies from overfeeding.

The rat starts at 'S', eats cheese at 'c' and finishes the program at 'C' (the big cheese pile). Everytime it runs over 'a' or 'b' it adds 1 to the A or B accumulator. 'A' and 'B' do the same for subtracting. 'T' only allows turning left if the B accumulator is 0. 'P' places the A accumulator onto the stack, 'R' outputs the entire stack. There's a few more instructions that are not quite as important.

It's quite a fun and simplistic language (not turing complete in my opinion, due to lacking stack manipulation) that has a few more tricks to it than you might expect at first sight. The challenge of keeping the rat fed is pretty funny and learning how to golf your code is super interesting.

Review: 8/10 you should give it a try at least once (but I'm biased for 2D languages)

Ran into this on HN and had to share it. I love esolangs with "surprising" source representations

Most primitive language for LSP? (programming.dev)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by TheCee@programming.dev to c/esolangs@programming.dev
2 comments fedilink
 
 

Hi, what is the most primitive programming language (esolangs included) that you can think of or make up that could still be reasonably well^1^ supported by a language server (or similar piece of software)?

1 We have to draw a line somewhere, so I'd figure capabilities

  • highlight semantic errors
  • renaming stuff safely, that is:
    • without confirmation
    • without evaluating parts of the code
  • proper completion (not just best guess)
  • go to definition/show use

I appreciate your answers!

https://esolangs.org/wiki/tiny

Tiny is a small integer RPN based language created by User:Ron.hudson. It is a console/character type interpretive programming language, in which all statements are either assignments or those that print quoted strings.

Welcome all, hopefully this relatively small community is able to find this new place to congregate!
