Line 1: {{language\|Befunge}} '''Befunge''' is an esoteric programming language invented by Chris Pressey in 1993. It is unusual for having a two-dimensional toroidal code space. Commands are single characters., ~~The~~and the instruction pointer can move up, down, left, and right across the source. ~~The~~One ~~original~~of ~~specification~~the isoriginal ~~known~~goals asof ~~Befunge-93,~~the ~~which~~language was ~~later~~to ~~updated~~be as ~~with~~hard ~~additional~~to ~~features~~compile as ~~Befunge-98~~possible. ~~Befunge was~~In the ~~first~~latter part of athe ~~family~~90s, ofseveral ~~languages~~attempts ~~referred~~were made to asextend ~~"Funges".~~the Inlanguage, ~~addition~~with tomutually ~~the~~incompatible ~~"normal"~~versions ~~2-dimensional~~proposed ~~layout~~in '96, ~~there~~'97 isand a'98. ~~1-dimension~~It was at this time that the idea of variant ~~called~~dimensions were introduced, with '''Unefunge'''~~, a~~ 3(one-dimensional ~~variant called~~), '''Trefunge''', (three-dimensional) and an'''Nefunge''' (''N''-dimensional) ~~variant~~- ~~called~~the general language class then being refered to as a '''~~Nefunge~~Funge'''. The '96 and '97 versions are now largely considered abandoned, and while '''Funge-98''' did gain a certain amount of traction, it has never been as widely adopted as the original '''Befunge-93'''. Being considerably more complex than the original, it is often deemed "too complicated" and sometimes even "too normal". ==See also== * [http://github.com/catseye/Befunge-93/blob/master/doc/Befunge-93.markdown Befunge-93 Specification] * [http://github.com/catseye/Funge-98/blob/master/doc/funge98.markdown Funge-98 Specification] * [[wp:Esoteric programming language#Funges\|Funges on Wikipedia]] * [[eso:Befunge\|Befunge on Esolangs]] * [http://catseye.tc/projects/befunge93/doc/befunge93.html Befunge-93 Documentation] (broken in some browsers) ** [http://web.archive.org/web/20080625030023/http://catseye.tc/projects/befunge93/doc/befunge93.html Web Archive copy of the above] * [http://quadium.net/funge/spec98.html Funge-98 Final Specification] [[Category:Esoteric Languages]]
