i wont ramble on and on about a lang i never finished but i just want you to know that instead of parens/brackets of some sort it used \ matching with ;
Welcome to the twenty-third Learn You A Lang for Great Good! Today, we'll be learning jellyfish. During the event, feel free to post CMCs to practice jellyfish (JMCs), ask questions about the language, and so on.

Jellyfish is what you get when you combine the tacitness of Jelly with the 2D layout of ><>. Each operator takes inputs from below and to the right, and sends outputs up and to the left. Jellyfish is a two-dimensional esoteric programming language inspired by J and written in Python 3. It was inspired by a challenge on PPCG. The name was suggested in PPCG chat as a combination of Jelly, a golfing language inspired by J, and Fish, a two-dimensional esoteric language. There's a syntax documentation file, a reference file, and an online interpreter, courtesy of Dennis from PPCG.
Jellyfish is a two-dimensional language, and the source code should be thought of as a 2D grid. Each position of the grid may contain an item, which is one of the following:
A value, which is further classified as one of the following: A numeric literal, visually a horizontal run of digits. It is placed at the position of the leftmost digit. A character literal, visually a single quote ' followed by said character. It is placed at the position of the quote. A string literal, visually a horizontal run of characters surrounded by double quotes ". A closing quote is inferred at the end of a l…
Most functions and operators have unary and binary forms. A function on the grid takes as its inputs the nearest values to its south and east; if both are present, the binary form is used, and if only one is present, the unary form is used. An operator also takes its inputs from the south and east, but they are functions instead of values. Only if a value is encountered instead of a function, it is used as the input to an operator. The operator evaluates its argument(s) and produces a new function, and this function is evaluated on the argument(s) of its east input (or, if the east input ha…
Can anyone help me make a Hello World program in Mario37? [Interpreter](https://bin.disroot.org/?44e1a4a81753a1f8#CDJcuxGu83AvK9YfuuSTM2aZT5c7FG7CWmd3zod3Ki1r) Willing to give a bounty for non-trivial and short answers.
Interpreter is in Python
I'm willing to explain anything if you encounter some difficulties, but everything should be clear given the source code
JMC: Given a string containing lowercase letters and spaces, change the first letter of each run of letters to uppercase: "go hang a salami" -> "Go Hang A Salami"
Huh, c takes the absolute value of its argument before converting it to a character. Pretty nice
You do have to be careful that your operators aren't taking an extra function from a direction you weren't expecting. I got lucky there because one of my `s actually has two <s attached to it but it somehow still works.
Found that out when I tried to golf it by rearranging stuff.
It seems like there might be a bug in the interpreter (or maybe it's just out of date): I can't get operators to work properly with a constant east argument, only with a constant south argument.
Make that 33 bytes--seems that doing math on characters auto-casts them to numbers.
Oh--I guess this algorithm assumes there won't be two spaces in a row.
Wait a second, it just occurred to me-- why do they freeze inactive rooms?
(If the rooms are still around, and all the messages are still kept, what does it help? The point is they're inactive anyway. Does it really help the server to not handle a couple sparse messages once every blue moon in an otherwise quiet room?)
having a separate status of some sort for inactive rooms makes sense for being able to hide them in the ui but that is a good question as to why they actually freeze
i guess it might partly be to support the concept of temporary chat rooms for migrating discussions from comments and whatnot
then maybe from a moderation standpoint it's useful to not have rooms that are for all purposes dead need attention in case they get messages in need of attention? though that could also be solved by just notifying moderators about the first message in 14 days in a room
For Meta
This challenge is currently just a very undeveloped idea I had today! So I'm just dumping it here to start getting feedback and somewhere to leave my own thoughts and notes as I start this.
As this is in such a undeveloped form and I'm not sure when I'll have time to do it, other people ...
Add parentheses to Polish notation
[Explanation of Polish notation]
Given a string consisting of numbers, whitespace, +, -, *, and / consisting of an expression in Polish notation, add parentheses around each sub-expression, maintaining the whitespace. The parentheses should start before each ope...
@thejonymyster Yes (says the guy who taught Greek in seminary)
Lowercase psi should have the middle line sticking up above the other two, and/or uppercase psi should have a serif. As long as a font has one or the other of those distinctions, it's not just a matter of vertical positioning.
Now that I say that, Wikipedia's main font does not have either of those distinguishing marks... tsk
Courier New has serifs on the capital and a sticky-up line on the lowercase, which is nice.
I also appreciate the Mathematical Italic versions: 𝛹𝜓 (but those don't monospace, unfortunately)
Cryptic Multiplications
Given two non-negative integers e.g. 27, 96 their multiplication expression would be 27 x 96 = 2592.
If now each digits is replaced with a symbol, such that
two digits are replaced with the same symbol if and only if they are equal
we could get something like AB x CD = A...
After playing with Jellyfish for a bit, my impression is that it's a neat idea, but it's missing several features that would make it much more usable. Also, the docs don't always match the behavior of the interpreter on TIO. (Some of that impression could be because I haven't fully understood something, to be sure.)
