Line 68: =={{header\|Quackery}}== ~~{{incorrect\|Quackery\|`("Nests" in the Quackery nomenclature"` has unbalanced brackets and quotes<br>~~ ~~<small>I would guess you meant `("Nests" in the Quackery nomenclature)`</small>}}~~ The Quackery language is an extensible assembler for a Quackery Engine. The Quackery Engine has a memory model based on dynamic arrays and bignums, so presumes comprehensive hardware support for these features. Program execution consists of the Quackery Processor traversing directed tree-like graphs built from dynamic arrays ("Nests" in the Quackery nomenclature") containing Operators (op-codes), Numbers (pointers to bignums) and pointers to Nests. The Quackery processor is stack-based rather than register-based. Programming in Quackery consists of extending the predefined graphs that constitute the Quackery environment.
