I want to suggest an alternative encoding/notation where instead of single (very nicely chosen) Unicode codepoints, the operators are single (perhaps less well-suited) printable ASCII characters. This would make the language into its own, human-authorable, bytecode!
- ithkuil 3y agoLike k
- derefr 3y agoVisually would look kind of like K, yes; but K (obviously) isn't a stack language, and more importantly, K has operators that consist of multiple characters, and circumfix operators like {}, etc. So it really has none of the qualities that a bytecode has. Whereas Uiua/ASCII would have all of the qualities that a bytecode has.
- ithkuil 3y agoDoes Uiua still have to do some parsing for parenthesis for functions?
