2D语言特别介绍（from wikipedia）
2d is a programming language that appeared in the 2006 ICFP programming contest. Programs written in this language are drawn out as ASCII flowcharts using boxes and arrows, as shown in the following example.
,...................................., :p | *=================* : ---#->!send[(W,S),(W,E)]!+ : : v *=================*v : :*=============*| *===========* : :!case N of S,E!#>!send[(N,E)]!------- :*=============*v *===========* : : | *=====* *===============*: : +-->!use p!->!send[(Inl W,E)]!- : *=====* *===============*: ,....................................,
While on the surface the language appears much like a description of a printed circuit board, it differs from physical circuits in many significant ways. In the 2d language, arbitrarily large and complex values may be passed along a wire. In addition, 2d boxes may make recursive references with the use keyword.
Participants in the contest were asked to write several programs in this language, including a 1-dimensional ray tracer. Programs were evaluated both on the correctness of their output and on their size: programs with smaller areas were worth more points.
