Strange Befunge-descendant language.

By Antonio Maschio. An obfuscated language, powerful, quite complete, based on forth, "false" (by W. van Oortmerssen) and "TRUE" (by Dewi).

Specifications, implementations, sample source code collections for several strange languages, comments on obfuscated language taxonomy and on several far-out coding practices, mail list, links to many related sites.

An open-source language for writing comments.

D. Morgan-Mar esoteric languages Chef, Haifu, Ook!, Piet, Whenever. Links.

"Institute" for the standardization of unstandardized standardizable things, mostly esoteric languages and extensions to them.

An organisation started to spread insanity and weird programming paradigms among the masses.

Collection of esoteric programming language implementations, examples, and related files.

Programming language with two main goals: confusing everyone with an obfuscated syntax, and designing as powerful a language as possible with a tiny implementation: this compiler executable is only 1024 bytes, written in pure 68000 assembler.

A superset of the BrainFuck programming language.

Iota is an unambiguous Turing-complete language with just two symbols, heavily utilizing the lambda calculus. Jot is an offspring of Iota that provides, among others, a particularly elegant Goedel numbering. This page also contains a four-line Iota implementation and a five-line Jot implementation in Scheme, and Javascript interpreters for the two languages.

An esoteric language inspired by BF and Beatnik which allows l33t h4xX0r5 to write programs in their native dialect.

Brief introductions to LITHP, C-, FIFTH, and other programming languages that have been overdue for a long time.

The very first Malbolge program to appear, how it was crafted (by a genetic algorithm program) and similar things.

Specifically designed to be extremely difficult to program in.

A language in which the IP (instruction pointer) varies depending on the current stack size.

An interpreter for the piet programming language. In this language the programs are pictures, build out of 18 colors and black and white - this is about the real "art of programming".

A programming language in which program flow can go sideways. Closely related to Befunge. Tutorial, reference, sample source code, Public Domain implementation available.

Home of esoteric programming languages such as Java2K, Smith#, Sorted!, [], Esogotschi and the Great Python Language Zoo. Also heavy on the code obfuscation front.

An interpreted two dimensional language based on "Befunge". It is not intended to create useful programs but just to experiment with an unusual programming concept.

Introduction to Malbolge programming. Also propose modificatins of Malbolge for making programming in it more worse.

A queue based programming language. It's not designed to be useful, just fun.

A language with beautiful source code that resembled Shakespeare plays.

Minimalistic functional language based on the Lambda calculus but lacking the Lambda operator. Tutorial, reference, GPLed interpreters available.

Directory of sites dealing with obfuscated programming languages.

Turing incomplete programming language written by a guy named Larry, who's friends always asked him about his new PC: "What does it do?" Works via 2 registers: accumulator and match flag which holds one value (T or F).

Yet another list of obfuscated programming languages.

Any non whitespace characters are ignored; only spaces, tabs and newlines are considered syntax.

A toy obfuscated programming language from the brain of Mark Carter. Harness the power of XML, by using it as a programming language. Comes with compiler and example code.
