A stack based programming language with a two-dimensional program counter
This is a stack based language with a two-dimensional program pointer. It has no practical purpose except for making you think. It was made for exploring the feasability of constructing a two-dimensional microcontroller. The concept of two-dimensional programs fits well with the human mind but seems to have no real benefits for a CPU. This project may surface again as a two-dimensional compiler. It uses Reverse Polish Notation.
Using reverse Polish notation makes it possible to make a language that is almost syntax free as opposed to the syntax quagmire of C++.
Interpreter and some samples: matrix2.zip (1.9MB)
