Most useless programming language - alakazam - 07-13-2015

Which is the most useless programming language at the moment? By useless I mean that hardly anyone uses it anymore and nobody is looking for programmers to build them websites with that language.

In my opinion, it's Perl.

Not all languages are designed to build websites.

Probably something like Visual Basic.

I know it's not so much useless and can come in useful, but I'd much rather use an alternative.

I don't know, I just hate everything about vb.

Probably would have to go with Batch. Don't know anyone that uses it for anything.

Turing, Small Basic, Cassandra, Brainfuck... There are many that all tie one another for this title.

brainfuck. It's also really annoying to TRY and use.

There's also a few others that has utterly autistic syntax usage, made solely to be hard.

Probably some languages like LOLCode. Which really are made to confuse the hell out of you. But makes you laugh at the end.

Man I've never even heard of LOLCode before but it looks hilarious! Checking it out right now on a few sites. Can't believe it's actually got a GitHub depository. 


Previously I mentioned that I think Batch may be the most useless programming language, but I may have to change my opinion. I'm going to have to go with Brainfuck.

Here's the Brainfuck wiki check it out man; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainfuck

The Hello World source is fucking out of this world. Can't see any use for the language - whatsoever.. Unless you want to learn it to show off. :p

LOLCode had to be made by someone extremely bored lmao
