05:17:55 <zzo38> Is there a block cipher mode involving making up a new key for each block (which will need to involve some function for making up the key)?
05:56:13 <Sgeo> PL/I has ALLOCATE and FREE statements to allocate memory dynamically. They stack, as in, you can allocate a variable several times, and the most recent one is what's visible, then free it a matching number of times.
07:02:12 <ais523> Sgeo: you're reminding me of zzo38's page of programming languages with unusual features
07:02:24 <ais523> it almost sounds as though you could make one of your own (or combine efforts)
07:14:56 <b_jonas> Sgeo: is that for nested function calls mostly?
07:23:33 -!- tromp has joined.
07:28:19 <Sgeo> b_jonas, I'm not sure the main intended use. But that's for CONTROLLED variables. There are also BASED variables that can be ALLOCATEd but don't supported the nested allocation thing
07:28:27 <Sgeo> So, PL/I is based.
07:28:54 <Sgeo> PL/I is on zzo38's page, ALLOCATE not mentioned though. I should try writing programs that demonstrate the features mentioned
07:29:25 <Sgeo> BLISS should be added, it allows redefining array syntax.
07:29:49 <Sgeo> Or.. not sure how to describe it. Almost but not quite like custom code when using array syntax
07:33:47 <Sgeo> "The third part of a STRUCTURE declaration is the actual accessing algorithm or structure body. It is this algorithm that determines the address for each reference made to a specific logical element of the structure."
07:34:20 <Sgeo> I feel like some higher-level modern languages can be similar, with overloading array syntax
07:34:31 <Sgeo> Feel gross about that "based" joke

14:30:54 <korvo> Ginger Bill posted yet another explainer of why his language design is good, actually: https://www.gingerbill.org/article/2026/04/29/blessed-syntax-and-ergonomics/
14:31:39 <korvo> I never know exactly what new folly we're going to get with his posts. Today it sounds like he's angry at, among other things, the Strategy Pattern and short-string optimizations (also called small-string optimizations).

19:12:00 <zzo38> Add the stuff to my list of programming languages with unusual features if you have something to add. (If someone thinks it is sensible to move it to the main namespace then you might consider that too, depending on what the official policy of this wiki is and if it makes sense in that specific case.)
