IIRC Fortran also allows you do to do this. Another would be Rebol: >> a: [0 1 2 3 4 5] == [0 1 2 3 4 5] >> a/1 == 0 >> a/2 == 1 >> a: next a == [1 2 3 4 5] >> a/1

Yep... Red can compiled down to Red/System or be interpreted (with JIT). Red/System can be compiled down to machine code, bytecode (for select VMs) and I believe Javascript. Red claims to be the world’s first full-stack language

OK but if you copy/paste those lines again it might be worth fixing that "Pearl" typo :) Since we've gone off-topic I thought it might be good to post the same Rebol code from that old thread but updated to use the new R
