BuzzFish

BuzzFish is a esolang by User:Yayimhere to demonstrate the problem with Looping counters.

the syntax

BuzzFish has 3 commands:

*: print *
n: print a newline
|x}: loops x forever 
|x}=: say the ip is !. Then it evals as:
	!|x}= -> !x|x}=%
|x}=%: executes as:
	!|x}=% -> |x}=!%
% delete itself

the problem

the problem is either BuzzFish is more power full than a Linear bounded automaton in some aspects or a Looping counter can be ran by something with a lower computational class. Obviously the latter is wrong, but, it really does show how much power is really needed for a program to have power.
