Intercal Languages Programming

Intercal Languages Programming

"INTERCAL's main advantage over other programming languages is its strict simplicity. It has few capabilities, and thus there are few restrictions to be kept in mind. Since it is an exceedingly easy language to learn, one might expect it would be a good language for initiating novice programmers. Perhaps surprising, then, is the fact that it would be more likely to initiate a novice into a search for another line of work. As it turns out, INTERCAL is more useful (which isn't saying much) as a challenge to professional programmers." - from The INTERCAL Programming Language Reference Manual, Copyright (C) 1973 by Donald R. Woods, James M. Lyon
