The article explores concatenative programming languages (catlangs), which center on point-free composition where juxtaposition equals composition. It discusses stack management challenges, the use of quotations for higher-order programs, and the limitations of lexical variables in catlang ecosystems.
Background
Concatenative programming languages like Joy and Factor use stack-based computation and point-free composition. This article continues exploration of ergonomic improvements for such languages.
