00:44:49 <b_jonas> suppose I want to specify a programming language that is kind of like J in that it's golfy but not as golfy as some of these crazy modern golf languages, and is intended to work well for numeric computations and as a calculator for quickly testing stuff. suppose it's esoteric only in as much as it's golfy and trying out lots of new crazy ideas 90% of which are probably bad ideas but nothing that I
00:44:55 <b_jonas> definitely know is a bad idea and add only for weirdness's sake.
00:46:06 <b_jonas> in that case, would it be too evil to (1) use the - sign to mean reverse subtraction, so that 1-9 results in 8? (2) use < as the less than comparison operator but > for something entirely different because I don't need a short notation for both less than and greater than comparison and ascii punctuation is expensive?
00:46:30 <ais523> "trying out lots of new crazy ideas 90% of which are probably bad ideas but nothing that I definitely know is a bad idea and add only for weirdness's sake" is probably one of the most productive things you can do when creating a programming language, in terms of informing future languages
00:47:30 <ais523> languages like Brachylog (golfy, but not so much as the modern most-golfy languages) manage with lots of redundant use of single-byte tokens, though
00:47:33 <b_jonas> ais523: yeah, and it's really only future languages, because many of those ideas are ones that can't easily be removed from the language later
00:48:34 <ais523> perhaps all noncommutative operators should have reversed operands? then - as reverse-subtract doesn't seem so starnge
00:49:38 <b_jonas> all of them? including less than? hmm, I haven't considered that
00:50:51 <ais523> in a language I'm working on, all objects have values as booleans that can be unrelated to their values as integers/strings
00:51:10 <ais523> so you can make - and less-than the same operation, by having subtraction set the truthiness of the result based on its sign
00:51:48 <ais523> (this is a similar idea to overloading operators based on their return type, but easier to specify and it doesn't need any static analysis)

07:07:45 <zzo38> I have thought of something a bit similar before in some other designs that I had done, although instead an instruction that stores a result will also store a boolean value with it, and I think subtraction did work like you described (if I remember correctly).
