@Seggan But there's no mechanism in that to balance the parentheses

Seggan

i know

Deadcode

It wouldn't work for redundant parentheses around parts that also have non-redundant parentheses

Seggan

thats an old version

im currently attempting to figure out PCRE features

i.e recursion and calls

would a challenge to write a Deadfish~ interpreter be too boring? We already have Deadfish interpreter, but Deadfish~ has constant loops (10x) and also an "if statement". Also a couple other minor things.

@PyGamer0 isn't that called Desmos?

Unrelated String

it sounds like an engine for rendering static graphs from a text specification... up until the bit about interactive sliders

because at that point you may as well just embed desmos

Nobody Needs Names

like,desmos in mathjax?

Unrelated String

oh yeah also kind of question the idea to use vector graphics when graphing arbitrary functions inherently has to be done at some finite resolution

Seggan

@NobodyNeedsNames you can embed desmos

Nobody Needs Names

ohhhhhhh ok

@emanresuA Bloolet uses client side RNG? Makes sense given that it feels like it's designed by a Kindergartner, but still...wow

lol

Adam

It's mostly because there are no good tools for it (for obvious reasons), but also some of the decisions in the language really annoy me

@Adam Have you considered making... a Knight fork?

A knife fork, you say?

@thejonymyster a pawn fork is much more elegant

Bubbler

I think Knight is relatively sane and consistent, though the biggest problem is lack of arrays

Steffan

3:22 AM

it's meant to be a simple language that can be written in as many languages as possible

Bubbler

Yeah implementing it is easy, but using it is a different matter

Bubbler

and apparently c/golf/expanded.c doesn't implement ~

This is already Knightmare lol

though probably better than, say, Piet

before I implement it

it's supposed to be "a programming language easier to learn than any other"

and now it's a little golflang-y

"To flatten the learning curve, we implemented relatively little built-ins to learn.", yah but every builtin is like one character and there's like 47 of them lol

@user I'mma call you Bing

because that's the kinda sh*t it'd give

user

Is that not good enough for you?

lyxal

Nah it's accurate but I more mean like how Google would give you results like "hey bro you should probably check that you're okay man gotta keep yourself healthy king" but bing be like "lmao here's how lol xD"

user

Oh yeah

Yeah it's nice that Google does that if you do stuff like look up "best ways to die"

(just to clarify I had to look that up for a French project once)

lyxal

@user understandable

Fr*nch would make anyone want to look that up

user

2:57 PM

I mean it was a project where you had to introduce yourself and one of the slides to make was "How do you want to die?"

I said I wanted to be assassinated in my sleep. A surprising number of people wanted to fall off a cliff and/or drown

lyxal

@user my answer would have just been "no."

mousetail

That would be a fucked up icebreaker if anyone had actual depression

user

I mean, you didn't have to choose that topic. There were 8 choices and you had to make 7 slides

lyxal

@user "how do you want to die?" "no thanks, imma stick around lol" "no we mean later on when your 80" "80? Bruh those are rookie numbers. Talk to me when you're considering at least 4 digits"

In Knight, is there an arity-1 function that can convert a string into a number? I could do , e.g. +0"12", but this feels like something that should be doable in less than 2 characters

thejonymyster

@NobodyNeedsNames oh i thought it was some weird term like how lists have "pop" and "push" and "behead" and all that

Steffan

@Adam Nope. You just have to do +0 lol

Knight is not a golfing lang
