Tjʊrɪŋ məʃin (stylized "tjʊrɪŋ məʃin") is a joke esoteric programming language created by Cinnamony. The only goal for this language was to be turing complete.
Commands
read(slot) - Prints out the number in a slot. input(slot) - Asks for a user input and writes it in a slot. write(number,slot) - Writes a number in a slot.
Examples
Hello World
Due to the number-only limitations, we have to write the ascii codes for it.
write(72,1) write(101,2) write(108,3) write(108,4) write(111,5) write(32,6) write(119,7) write(111,8) write(114,9) write(108,10) write(100,11) write(33,12) read(1) read(2) read(3) read(4) read(5) read(6) read(7) read(8) read(9) read(10) read(11) read(12)
Cat program
A one-time numeric cat program shall be demonstrated:
input(1) read(1)
Interpreter
- Common Lisp implementation of the Tjʊrɪŋ məʃin programming language. Please note that the concrete character set deployed constitutes a dependency on the Common Lisp implementation; in corollary, Unicode support may or may not be a feature incorporated in the personal environment. The interpreter at hand has been developed and tested with Steel Bank Common Lisp (SBCL) version 1.1.4 as part of the Lisp Cabinet 0.3.5 bundle.
