3 ;: The originality of Unlambda is that it stands as the unexpected intersection of two marginal families of languages:
2 AristotlePagaltzis 4 ** Obfuscated [ProgrammingLanguage]s, of which the canonical representative is [INTERCAL]. This means that the language was deliberately built to make programming painful and difficult (i.e. fun and challenging).
5 ** Functional [ProgrammingLanguage]s, of which the canonical representative is [Scheme] (a [LISP] dialect). This means that the basic object manipulated by the language (and indeed the only one as far as UnLambda is concerned) is the function.
