We are currently working on new rules for what content should and shouldn't be allowed on this website, and are looking for feedback! See Esolang:2026 topicality proposal to view and give feedback on the current draft.
t a b
t a b is a minimal esoteric programming language for the 23rd century. It is pretty much the exact same thing as Small, but even more arbitrary and harder to read! Made by newtykins. Play around with it using the online compiler/interpreter here.
Check out the GitHub Repo full of interpreters and compilers in various languages, and pre-generated examples!
It has 2 commands:
- " " (space) increments the accumulator.
- " " (tab) outputs the accumulator as an ASCII char.
When the accumulator reaches 255, it resets back to 0, and a command is skipped.
Examples
Due to t a b's nature, it is hard to show examples formatted in a readable way, as 99.9% of the text is invisible. For this reason, you can find the examples generated in the examples folder of the GitHub repo.
