6 Most Difficult Programming Languages

You may faced difficulty while learning programming languages like C++, Java, PHP, etc. But those languages can’t be considered as very difficult to learn. In this article I will share some most difficult programming languages that will give you nightmares if you try learning them.

These languages are also called as esoteric programming languages. These are not meant for development purpose and are popular among hackers and hobbyists.

6 Most Difficult Programming Languages

1. Malbolge

It was created by Ben Olmstead in 1998, and considered to be one of the hardest programming language. After invention of this language, it took almost 2 years to write first program using it.

Hello World program in Malbolge looks like:

(=<`#9]~6ZY32Vx/4Rs+0No-&Jk)"Fh}|Bcy?`=*z]Kw%oG4UUS0/@-ejc(:'8dc

2. Brainfuck

It was created in 1993 by Urban Müller. As the name suggests, you will get brain fuck if you try to learn it. The languages consists of only eight commands and the program is made using these commands.

Hello World program in Brainfuck looks like:

++++++++++[>+++++++>++++++++++>+++>+<<<<-]>++.>+.+++++++..+++.>++.<<+++++++++++++++.>.+++.------.--------.>+.>.

3. COW

It was created by Sean Heber in 2003. The language consists of 12 instructions, most of them are moo or its variations.

Hello World program in COW looks like:

4. INTERCAL

It was created by Don Woods and James M. Lyon in 1972.

Hello World program in INTERCAL looks like:

DO ,1 <- #13
PLEASE DO ,1 SUB #1 <- #238
DO ,1 SUB #2 <- #108
DO ,1 SUB #3 <- #112
DO ,1 SUB #4 <- #0
DO ,1 SUB #5 <- #64
DO ,1 SUB #6 <- #194
DO ,1 SUB #7 <- #48
PLEASE DO ,1 SUB #8 <- #22
DO ,1 SUB #9 <- #248
DO ,1 SUB #10 <- #168
DO ,1 SUB #11 <- #24
DO ,1 SUB #12 <- #16
DO ,1 SUB #13 <- #162
PLEASE READ OUT ,1
PLEASE GIVE UP

5. Whitespace

It was developed by Edwin Brady and Chris Morris on 1st April 2003. The program is made up of spaces, tabs and linefeeds. All other non-whitespace characters are ignored by its interpreter.

Hello World program in Whitespace looks like:

Whitespace Language

6. Chef

It was developed by David Morgan-Mar in 2002. Chef programs looks like cooking recipes.

Hello World program in Chef looks like:

Lobsters with Fruit and Nuts.

This recipe prints "Hello, World!" in a most delicious way.

Ingredients.
72 g hazelnuts
101 eggs
108 g lobsters
111 ml orange juice
44 g cashews

Rail Fence Cipher Program in C and C++[Encryption & Decryption]

Here you will get rail fence cipher program in C and C++ for encryption and decryption. It is a kind of transposition cipher which is also known as zigzag cipher. Below is an example. Here Key = 3. For encryption we write the message diagonally in zigzag form in a matrix having total rows = key and total columns = message length. Then read the matrix row wise horizontally to get encrypted message. Rail Fence Cipher Program in C #include<stdio.h> #include<string.h> void encryptMsg(char msg[], int key){ int msgLen = strlen(msg), i, j, k = -1, row = 0, col = 0; char railMatrix[key][msgLen]; for(i = 0; i < key; ++i) for(j = 0; j < msgLen; ++j) railMatrix[i][j] = '\n'; for(i = 0; i < msgLen; ++i){ railMatrix[row][col++] = msg[i]; if(row == 0 || row == key-1) k= k * (-1); row = row + k; } printf("\nEncrypted Message: "); for(i = 0; i < key; ++i) f...

Data Encryption Standard (DES) Algorithm

Data Encryption Standard is a symmetric-key algorithm for the encrypting the data. It comes under block cipher algorithm which follows Feistel structure. Here is the block diagram of Data Encryption Standard. Fig1: DES Algorithm Block Diagram [Image Source: Cryptography and Network Security Principles and Practices 4 th Ed by William Stallings] Explanation for above diagram: Each character of plain text converted into binary format. Every time we take 64 bits from that and give as input to DES algorithm, then it processed through 16 rounds and then converted to cipher text. Initial Permutation: 64 bit plain text goes under initial permutation and then given to round 1. Since initial permutation step receiving 64 bits, it contains an 1×64 matrix which contains numbers from 1 to 64 but in shuffled order. After that, we arrange our original 64 bit text in the order mentioned in that matrix. [You can see the matrix in below code] After initial permutation, 64 bit text passed throug...

Experimental: Reducing the size of .NET Core applications with Mono's Linker

The .NET team has built a linker to reduce the size of .NET Core applications. It is built on top of the excellent and battle-tested mono linker . The Xamarin tools also use this linker so it makes sense to try it out and perhaps use it everywhere! "In trivial cases, the linker can reduce the size of applications by 50%. The size wins may be more favorable or more moderate for larger applications. The linker removes code in your application and dependent libraries that are not reached by any code paths. It is effectively an application-specific dead code analysis ." - Using the .NET IL Linker I recently updated a 15 year old .NET 1.1 application to cross-platform .NET Core 2.0 so I thought I'd try this experimental linker on it and see the results. The linker is a tool one can use to only ship the minimal possible IL code and metadata that a set of programs might require to run as opposed to the full libraries. It is used by the various Xamarin products to extract...
