I never understood the purpose of languages with unicode operators that can supposedly express a 30 line script in like 2 symbols.
Are they purpose built on the spot for CodeGolf?
- lgeorget 5y agoNot on the spot, a condition for the answer to be accepted is that the language must exist before the challenge, but yes, many languages exist only just for the purpose of golfing. Mathematica is a legitimate language though, it just is the case that some operations are surprisingly compact.

- danuker 5y agoI doubt Mathematica is built for code golf. Check out Burlesque (which is ASCII). https://mroman.ch/burlesque/docs/BLSQ.html https://mroman.ch/burlesque/docs/BLSQ.html
