Computational class	Unknown
Reference implementation	Unimplemented

SPIKE is just ><> but harder. Mostly

Commands

Command	It's action
>	Makes the cursor move forwards.
<	Makes the cursor move backwards.
^	Makes the cursor move up.
v	Makes the cursor move down.
?	Goes either forwards, backwards, up or down.
_	Ends the program.
!	If the current value on the stack is 0 (or has the same value as the previous value), it goes forwards by 1 step. If it's not, it goes backwards by 1 step. If you want to check the previous value on the stack by typing ¡
x	Pop the recent value on the stack.
0-9	Adds numbers in the position of the cursor to the stack.
a, s, m, d	Math operators.
o, n	Pop and output as a character/number and pops the outputed character/number.
i	Pauses the operation and gets user input.
f	Flips the stack.
"	Anything inside the "" will be pushed into the stack as numbers
#	Comments
s	Pops two values and pushes the corresponding value to the postion of the second value (the starting value position is 1)
c	Duplicates the current value on the stack
/, \, |, -	Mirrors the direction of the cursor.

SPIKE errors

• If you manage to let the Fish swim away from the code area. The interpreter will say "The fish has now left the code area"
• If you make ONE of the values in the stack higher than 256 or lower than 0. The interpreter will say "I have eaten a deadfish once" (which means that interpreter is deadfish inspired)

Interpriter test cases

319a1amo_

Should print "!"

>v
^<

Should make the fish get stuck in a infinate loop

12foo_

Should put 1, 2 onto the stack, flip the stack and output the values of the stack

Examples

Hello, world!

this is the shortest Hello, world! program possible as of writing this

"Hello, world!"01so¡0_
