Talk:Nil

The world's first Nihilistic programming language?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't that be Sartre? --Rune 12:22, 3 Sep 2005 (GMT)


 * I don't think so: Nil does exactly nothing, and Sartre does exactly something. --Ihope127 21:56, 14 Sep 2005 (GMT)

Nil or NIL?
The official page on the language is titled The NIL Programming Language, and the page on the site that links to it also calls it NIL, but the page itself refers to the language as Nil. So which do we use? Or should both be acceptable? --Safalra 13:37, 16 Oct 2005 (GMT)


 * Hmmm, I think both should be acceptable. --User:Keymaker

The javascript page is wrong, newlines doesn't work

Idea for interpreters
Many people like making interpreters for esoteric languages, so I thought that there should be something saying that the Nil interpreter must take code and do something.

A Python implementation based on that: def nil_interpreter(code): for i in range(code): if code[i-1:i]=="": print("Cheater!")

Dead link
There's an external resource, marked as an online Nil interpreter, which is also marked as a dead link.

My question is, despite being dead, does the link nonetheless still fit the definition of a Nil interpreter in its dead state? --ais523 20:13, 27 January 2018 (UTC)
