Kvikkalkul

(language)/kveek`kahl-kool'/ A deliberately crypticprogramming language said to have been devised by the SwedishNavy in the 1950s as part of their abortive attempt at anuclear weapons program. What little is known about it comesfrom a series of an anonymous posts to Usenet in 1994. Theposter described the language, saying that he had programmedin Kvikkalkul when he worked for the Swedish Navy in the1950s. It is an open question whether the posts were atroll, a subtle parody or truth stranger than fiction couldever be.

Assuming it existed, Kvikkalkul is so much abondage-and-discipline language that it is, in its own ways,even more bizarre than the deliberate parody languageINTERCAL. Among its notable "features", all symbols inKvikkalkul, including variable names and program labels, canconsist only of digits. Operators consist entirely of thepunctuation symbols (, ), -, and :. Kvikkalkul allows nocomments - they might not correspond with the code.Kvikkalkul's only data type is the signed fixed-pointfractional number, i.e. a number between (but not including)-1 and 1. Dealings with the Real World that require numbersoutside that range are done with functions that notionally mapthat range to a larger range (e.g., -16383 to -16383) andback. Kvikkalkul had a probabilistic jump operator which, ifgiven a negative probability, would act like a COME FROM.This was, sadly, deleted in later versions of the language.
