Perhaps you already encountered the situation - you read a bit about some less-mainstreamed language, and ask yourself : How in the world do they write an "hello world" with that?

This is where i want APLC to help. I want to collect implementations in various "languages", for a few trivial algorythms (bubblesort etc) and applications.
I call it an practical language comparison. That said, the "languages" compared should be actual language implementations, for actual platforms - rather "GCC 3.0.4 for Linux x86 using KDE 3.2" than "C", rather "Turbo Pascal" than "Pascal". I'll call these implementations languages from now on.
