Very RPG sounding.
Nice find Peter.

Subject: IBNIZ similarity with RPG
Happy New Year everyone!
Slightly far afield, but I saw an article on Slashdot about "IBNIZ - a
hardcore audiovisual virtual machine and an esoteric programming language",
and following this link
http://countercomplex.blogspot.com/2011/12/ibniz-hardcore-audiovisual-virtua
l.html
and reading a few paragraphs down I found this sentence:
"Also, as every IBNIZ program is implicitly inside a loop that pushes a set
of loop variables on the stack on every cycle, even an empty program outputs
something".
Is it just me, or does "implicitly inside a loop" sound like a part some
ancient programming language that everyone seems to try and avoid these
days?
