Oh indeed, but it’s normally quite straightforward in the first few days. Certainly my terrible solution today is longer than any in the first maybe 10 days of last year.
What’s a “funge program”? [edit, oh befunge-like I guess]
Yep, funge has been used to describe any kind of multi-dimensional programming language - often with self-modifying code, I've personally found both 3D and 4D funge languages.
There's just something with the whole concept that amuses me, I've been trying to build some kind of funge-style programming puzzle game for a while now, but haven't figured out a good hook to take it past being just a PoC yet.
I’m not sure whether to be intrigued or horrified at the idea of an AoC type challenge where we slowly build up a 4D “FungeCode” interpreter like 2019’s IntCode series (which I notice I still haven’t completed!)
