A Brief Introduction to Esoteric Programming Languages

Описание: I wrote this talk for a friend's "Psychology of Programming" class, but it should be accessible to mainstream audiences. It covers "esoteric programming languages" (esolangs), their history, and why I find them so interesting.


There's also a companion article at https://hillelwayne.com/talks/esolangs. It includes more detail on each language, links to references, and talk errata.
