Hey guys, do we have toroidal languages here?

My friend is asking why we execute instructions in a line rather than, say, a ring, and I thought we might have some toroidal 1D or 2D languages here.

Destructible Watermelon

fairly sure we do

><>, for one

befunge as well

most 2d languages do, except for cubix

toroids are the rule, not the exception

Sherlock9

I'm having trouble coming with 2D languages off the top of my head

Destructible Watermelon

? you mean remembering ones that exist? or thinking of new ideas?

Sherlock9

Remembering ones that exit

Recalling their names

6:22 AM

@Sherlock9 Just recite over and over, "Befunge! Fish! Befunge! Fish!" And remember that "fish" is spelled ><>.

Also, this seems like a good time to plug my sort-of-2D language Ouroboros, in which instructions are indeed executed in a ring (actually one or more rings).

Jonathan Allan

@Dennis - hmm why the stray "-" in the list I make here? (hence the Ṗ near the right-hand end) - neither argument to the concatenation has it on their own, is it something to do with the dequeue, or have I misused niladic separation?

I hate how half the chess puzzles on this site are capture the queen, or get checkmate, and there isn't a distinction

Jonathan Allan

How do you know half are one type and half are the other if there is no distinction? ;)

there are 10 types of people in this world...

or was it 11?

I made Atomas in ~130 lines of code!

@JonathanAllan the distinction is only made after you win or fail

Fairly sure this page is incorrect

Immortal Draw

The Immortal Draw was a chess game played in 1872 in Vienna by Carl Hamppe and Philipp Meitner. This game is the main claim to fame of both Hamppe and Meitner, and has been reprinted widely. The variation of the Vienna Game it uses was named the Hamppe–Meitner Variation in honour of the two players. The game was played in the 19th-century Romantic style, in which rapid development and attack were considered the most effective way to win, where many gambits and counter-gambits were offered (and not accepting them was considered slightly ungentlemanly), and where material was often held in contempt...

specifically

> but White spectacularly manages to force a draw by perpetual check.

Qwerp-Derp

Uh huh...

Is there a contradiction in the page or do you have another source?

Pretty sure perpetual check is basically the same as threefold

Destructible Watermelon

> A spectacular queen sacrifice, preventing White from playing Nc3 and Ka2, after which Black has insufficient compensation for his material disadvantage. The move forces the draw that follows.

@Qwerp-Derp I meant that white forced the draw

Black forced the draw by perpetual check

Qwerp-Derp

Ah

So change it then

Destructible Watermelon

9:39 AM

also "spectacularly" is probably not the kind of thing for a wikipedia article

Sherlock9

Well, this sucks. I finally have a program for unlucky numbers that I know when U(1e6, 100) will finish for (unlike my previous versions which I wasn't sure would ever finish). The trouble is, that finishing time is projected to be about a month :')

Destructible Watermelon

I think the person who wrote the brief description didn't actually read the game

> This move is a crucial mistake, after which Black forces the draw in a breathtaking manner

Sherlock9

You think someone is mucking about with the Wikipedia article?

Destructible Watermelon

Y'know, this page is just bad in general
