• Stack based, and RPN syntax. Not very intuitive to use, but simple to parse.

Did I say it's a tiny language not suited for real world use? Remember that.

I called it Maize, and I will write a post soon about this experience. Expect: Ruby, Parslet, sensationalist title about creating your own language, and fun.
