[Chicago] Malvage? was: Pi generator again

[Ross Heflin]

Closest match my brain can come up with is Malbolge, an esoteric

Its named after a circle of hell as its author made it intentionally
difficult to write in.

More details here:
Wikipedia (citation neededs abound): http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malbolge

hth,
