Lambda Calculus in 383 Bytes (2022)
Programming language with a single keyword.
That makes it a fun tool for learning, but for more industrial scale applications a 520 byte version is provided too, that overcomes many of those limitations, although it requires writing code at an even higher difficulty setting. If we use the 8-bit version of the interpreter (the capital Blc one) which uses a true binary wire format, then we can get a sense of just how small the programs targeting this virtual machine can be. If you need to exponentiate larger numbers like 9**3 (big data by FP standards) then you'll need to tune the STACK parameter in blc.S to ask the operating system for something bigger than what's provided by default.
