''''Beam''' is yet another two dimensional language thought of around mid-2010 by [[User:Feuermonster]] and implemented and published in 2012. * The start-up direction is right. * There is a beam which holds an 8bit unsigned value. * Also there is a store which can hold an arbitrary large positive value. If it drops below zero it's wrapped to 255. * Then there is an infinite amount of 8bit memory cells. * The implementation uses NUL (\0) if no character could be read from stdin. * Every character which is not an instruction is a NOP. == Instructions == <pre> > Set the direction to right < Set the direction to left ^ Set the direction to up v Set the direction to down + Increment the beam - Decrement the beam @ Output the beam as character : Output the beam as number / Redirect the control flow like this: | ----/ /--- | (90 degrees to the left) \ Redirect the control flow like this: | -----\ \---- | (90 degrees to the right) ! If the beam is not 0, reverse the control flow. (It bounces off the !) ? If the beam is 0, reverse the control flow. (It bounces off the ?) | Reverse the control flow if coming from a right/left-direction _ Reverse the control flow if coming from a up/down-direction H stop the program S store = beam L beam = store s memory[beam] = store g store = memory[beam] P memory[store] = beam p beam = memory[store] u If beam != store change direction to up n if beam != store change direction to down ` Decrement the store ' Increment the store ) If store != 0 change direction to left ( If store != 0 change direction to right r Read character from input </pre> It should be noted, that 'u' and 'n' perform 32bit comparison: if the store exceeds 255 the comparison beam != store is always true since beam can not exceed 255. Lines are not padded to equal length. A compliant interpreter is not allowed to do this! == Example programs == === Reverse stdin === <pre> <nowiki> '> rP n ^!p'<vn(`< ^ < >'p!`>`p@ v Hnp`< ^ < </nowiki> </pre> Painfully written by hand.
