@Pietu1998 I've been thinking about mode changes for a golfing language. I don't believe it's as straightforward to implement well as you might think. There are some basic one letter commands that you would always want to keep. So each extended set of commands that you can "promote" to one letter commands could not overlap the basic commands. Or, all extended command sets would have to contain the basic commands. Which means that they overlap, and you get less command letters for each of them.
Also financial/statistical applications, I believe. I read the Wikipedia page recently, and it said that it was still used for financial trading software.
Language-creation has become a popular activity on PPCG. A decent portion of answers, especially code-golf answers, are written in languages invented by the community. These are also languages that might be unfamiliar to this site's wider viewing audience.
What languages (esoteric, golfing, or...
I'm serious. Once you get used to the stack-based approach, it's incredibly easy. Everything is evaluated from left to right, there's no operator precedence, etc.
So I'm not sure what's more impressive, @MartinBüttner answering my question in 51 bytes or Brian Tuck doing it in two more bytes... but the same language
I still think BF/WS is the way to go if you're going to go with huge esolang solutions.
lol, since both programs ignore invalid characters, you could write a single program in both bf an ws that, when filtered would be one version and filtered the other way would be the other version
Problem Given N 3-dimensional points S = [(xi,yi,zi):1<=i<=n] . I have to find the value of the formula
all numbers are between 1 and M ( = 100).
I need an efficient method for the reduction of this formula to something which is easy to calculate.
So far, I have recognized that the above ex...
In this challenge, we will together create a word-search containing many programs in different languages.
I have started us off with a grid of 60-by-25 blanks (·), some of which are replaced by the characters of a Ruby program.
To answer, choose a language that was not yet used. Using your chos...

Background
You are working as a programmer for a car sales company.
Your task for this week is to program an XML parser that takes in data about available models from different car manufacturers, and pretty-prints information about the newest models.
Luckily for you, the testing department has p...
Let $n = p_1^{e_1} p_2^{e_2} \cdots p_k^{e_k}$ an integer with $p_i$ prime and $e_i \in \mathbb N$. The prime factorization can assumed to be known, i.e. we already know $p_1,\ldots,p_k$ and $e_1 , \ldots e_k$.
Is it possible to find the number of factorizations of length $m$ of the form
$n = ...
@flawr Unfortunately yes, you can join the US military at age 18. It used to be that you were required to sign up for "selective service," something like a draft, at age 16. (I don't know if it's still the case but it was when I was 16.)
à Paris, pour m'actualizer avec les acontessementes chez moi, et quand j'ai compris le billet du métro pour Orly j'ai dit «Un billet simple, por favor».
C'est ce qui se passe quand on parle tout le temps une langue étranger et on laisse autre.
@AlexA. I did only 6 months so far, at a non profit organizations that tries to collect information about wheelchair accessible buildings/traver opportuinities etc.
You do get paid but not very much. In the first 6 months you get paid the same amount as the recruits in training. But you could barlely survive with that income. Afer that you get about 80% of what you get paid in your regular job. (The state usually pays your employer a compensation for the time you are not on your job, and he continues to pay you some of your income.)
No I am not sure yet. You allways have to search for those jobs and apply as in any other job, which is kind of ridiculous...
I am not even sure what I am allowed to do next anyway as there are pretty complicated restriction nobody really understands and that change every year....
