LOLCode: LOLCat programming language
This advertisement for a NY-based programmer showed up on Craigslist, and I expect that more will follow:
YOU CAN HAS CHEEZEBURGER?
YOU HAS A FLAVUR?If so, you may be the right fit for this Midtown Manhattan Web Design Startup! We are a small company looking for a Senior LOLCode Developer, preferably with at least 1 month experience developing LOLapps. Please send a resume, along with links to any web-based LOLapps you have developed.
KTHXBYE
The recently invented LOL.NET has a compiler for the Microsoft CLR which you can use with MS Visual Studio to write and compile code. For example, to loop from 0 to 9 and print each number and then exit, you would write (it’s horrible, brace yourself):
HAI
CAN HAS STDIO?
I HAS A VAR
IM IN YR LOOP
UP VAR!!1
VISIBLE VAR
IZ VAR BIGGER THAN 10? KTHXBYE
IM OUTTA YR LOOP
KTHXBYE
This can be compared to a normal language which might write:
void main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
for(int i=0; i < 10; i++)
printf(”%d”, i);
}
Among other things, they have an Eclipse syntax highlighter, an Erlang bytecode compiler, a Ruby interpreter, a javascript implementation, C and C++ support, and some translators into LUA, JS, and other languages. Check out the lolcode 1.2 language spec if you’re bored.
