| 2024-12-21 16:07:14 +0100 | <enikar> | ski: thanks, I didn't know that, but I wrote a simple calculator that used threaded code. |
| 2024-12-21 16:06:22 +0100 | <ski> | probie : does it have `swap',`drop' and `dup' ? |
| 2024-12-21 16:05:55 +0100 | <ski> | that's interesting |

| 2024-12-21 16:05:33 +0100 | <probie> | I'm not sure if I'd call it a truly concatenative language, but Uiuia is stack based language in which Haskell's `f . g` is written as `f g`. However `f\ng` (where \n is a literal newline) is the same as `g f`. |
| 2024-12-21 16:04:33 +0100 | <enikar> | never mind :) |
| 2024-12-21 16:04:27 +0100 | <ski> | enikar : <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threaded_code> is also interesting |
| 2024-12-21 16:03:42 +0100 | <ski> | (er, sorry, that was probie who said that) |

| 2024-12-21 16:02:20 +0100 | <enikar> | yes it is |
| 2024-12-21 16:01:59 +0100 | <ski> | enikar : .. which may be unexpected/surprising (re your comment about `f . g' above) |
| 2024-12-21 16:01:30 +0100 | <ski> | probie : *nod* (re Smalltalk) |
| 2024-12-21 16:01:28 +0100 | <enikar> | oh! I see! |
| 2024-12-21 15:59:51 +0100 | <ski> | (btw, note how `foo . bar' does the word `foo' first, and then the word `bar', not the other way around) |
| 2024-12-21 15:58:54 +0100 | <enikar> | yes :) |
| 2024-12-21 15:58:44 +0100 | <ski> | enikar : like that ^ |

| 2024-12-21 15:56:59 +0100 | <enikar> | when I discovered forth it was a great moment :) |
| 2024-12-21 15:54:52 +0100 | <probie> | In a concatenative programming language, If I have a function `f` and a function `g`, their composition (written in Haskell as `f . g`) is just `g f` |
| 2024-12-21 15:53:30 +0100 | <enikar> | I found that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concatenative_programming_language |
| 2024-12-21 15:52:40 +0100 | <probie> | languages like Forth and Factor |
| 2024-12-21 15:52:21 +0100 | <enikar> | ski: concatenative languages? |

| 2024-12-21 15:50:19 +0100 | <probie> | Re smalltalk: That's right, because x+k*y is (using pseudo-Java syntax) `x.Plus(k).Mult(y)` |
| 2024-12-21 15:48:21 +0100 | <ski> | enikar : then there's the concatenative languages |
| 2024-12-21 15:47:22 +0100 | <ski> | iirc, Smalltalk also does this (although to the left, not to the right) |
| 2024-12-21 15:46:45 +0100 | <probie> | ski: Pretty much all the APL descendants (APL itself, K, J, Q, BQN) already do this, and their users seems satisfied with how `y*k+x` is parsed |

| 2024-12-21 15:41:05 +0100 | <ski> | yea, that too |
| 2024-12-21 15:41:01 +0100 | <ski> | it would get interpreted as `y * (k + x)' |
| 2024-12-21 15:40:34 +0100 | <probie> | ski: That's not annoying at all. The annoying operator is `-`, because `3 - 4 - 5 - 6` is `3 - (4 - (5 - 6))` |
| 2024-12-21 15:38:56 +0100 | <ski> | `y * k + x' would be awkward |
| 2024-12-21 15:38:28 +0100 | <enikar> | there is liskell, if many parentheses don't afraid you ;) |
| 2024-12-21 15:34:00 +0100 | <probie> | Personally, I wouldn't hate a version of Haskell where all infix operators have the same precedence as `$` |

| 2024-12-21 15:30:19 +0100 | <zzz> | then again, function composition would get awkward |

| 2024-12-21 15:29:16 +0100 | <zzz> | i've always wonder if Haskell without infix operators would be nicer |
