Joy
A functional programming language by Manfred von
Thun. Joy is unusual because it is not based on lambda
calculus, but on the composition of functions. Functions
take a stack as argument, consume any number of parameters
from it, and return it with any number of results on it. The
concatenation of programs denotes the composition of
functions. One of the datatypes of Joy is that of quoted
programs, of which lists are a special case.
