clarify behavior when not enough arguments are on the stack
Dec 2, 2023 at 16:45 comment added RubenVerg @bsoelch Bounded integers are fine (but maybe specify if it's a very low bound), and you can input them in whatever way you like. Instructions can be not atomic as long as they're deterministic.
Dec 2, 2023 at 16:04 comment added bsoelch Can the instructions be represented as a sequence of smaller instructions? Can I for example have an an instruction # that pops two numbers and pushes the sum and difference and then define addition as #drop and subtraction as # swap drop or do all operations have to be atomic
Dec 2, 2023 at 15:20 comment added bsoelch Would it be allowed to only support integers in some bounded interval (e.g. 32-bit integers), or do you require support for arbitrary size integers? Is the integer format required to be decimal or would unary integers be allowed?

clarify swap instruction
Dec 2, 2023 at 3:15 comment added Bbrk24 I am definitely trying this in Trilangle if/when it's posted. Maybe give me a couple weeks because it's exam week, but
Dec 1, 2023 at 17:27 comment added Philippos Agreed! »opposite order« is the clearest.
Dec 1, 2023 at 13:53 comment added RubenVerg @Philippos would "and push them so that they are in opposite order" be better? woudln't change it to "and push them in the same order" which would definitely make it more confusing
Dec 1, 2023 at 13:51 comment added Philippos »and push them in the opposite order (swap)« strictly thought, they are not pushed in the opposite order: A swap pushes the value first that was popped first. But I doubt this will be misunderstood by anyone. (-;

Reverse stack in examples
Dec 1, 2023 at 6:20 comment added Philippos I suggest to represent the stack in a left=bottom/right=top manner, like it is typically done in every stack based language I know.
Dec 1, 2023 at 6:08 comment added RubenVerg @ATaco No, I think eval for stack languages would still be interesting. How am I supposed to mark the winning criteria?
Dec 1, 2023 at 1:48 comment added ATaco Do you plan to prevent stack based languages just eval'ing it? Also, what's the Winning Criteria..? code-golf?
