gollark: Anyway, basically: WHY takes some C code, and sticks it in the main function, and then adds a busy loop to waste CPU time.
gollark: They should make an EsoAPI with support for brainf*** and other important languages.
gollark: ```WHY was created to illustrate to somebody that compiled languages are not necessarily faster.Compiling WHY involves reading the WHY source file and then placing it in a C source file at the end of the `main` function after a busy loop.Here is a Python implementation; it requires GCC to be installed. It supports different "optimization" levels. ```Quoted from the Wiki.
gollark: ESOBOT!
gollark: YES IT IS.
