Length is an esoteric programming language created by user:Nailuj29. Its instructions are the length of the lines, so you can hide a Length program in any other program.
Instruction Set
| Line Length | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 9 | inp | Pushes the ascii value of the first byte of stdin to the stack. |
| 10 | add | Pops the top two values from the stack and pushes their sum onto the stack. |
| 11 | sub | Pops value A from the stack and then value B. Pushes value B - A onto the stack.
|
| 12 | dup | Duplicates the top value of the stack. |
| 13 | cond | Pops the top value from the stack. If it is 0, skip the next instruction. If the instruction to be skipped is gotou or push, skip that instructions argument as well.
|
| 14 | gotou | Sets the program counter to the value of the line under the instruction, skipping that line. |
| 15 | outn | Pops the top of the stack and outputs it as a number. |
| 16 | outa | Pops the top of the stack and outputs its ascii value. |
| 17 | rol | Rotates the stack to the left: [ 7 6 5 ] -> [ 6 5 7 ]
|
| 18 | swap | Swaps the top two values of the stack: [ 7 6 5 ] -> [ 6 7 5 ]
|
| 20 | mul | Pops the top two values from the stack and pushes their product onto the stack. |
| 21 | div | Pops value A from the stack and then value B. Pushes value B / A onto the stack.
|
| 23 | pop | Pops the top value of the stack |
| 24 | gotos | Pops the top of the stack and sets the program counter to it (indexed starting at 1). |
| 25 | push | Pushes the value of the line under this instruction to the stack, skipping that line. |
