  Well, if you put it that way... :)

    If it were, there is a chance that I -would- be able to imagine it. As
it is, those of us who do not have a mathematical mind need to break it down
in to steps to be able to understand it at all. When I see example code like
this it takes me hours to turn it into nested statements so that I can
absorb it in bite sized chunks.

    If pov is just for programmers and mathematicians then I should just
give up now. I mean when guy like Warp...

main(i,_){for(_?--i,main(i+2,"FhhQHFIJD|FQTITFN]zRFHhhTBFHhhTBFysdB"[i]
):_;i&&_>1;printf("%s",_-70?_&1?"[]":" ":(_=0,"\n")),_/=2);} /*- Warp -*/

    ...says something is "easier and more intutive", I know that I will get
lost right away. My skills are in other areas.

  That was an insult.

  For your information, I have studied computer science (software) for 5 years
in the Tampere University of Technology. I have been working in the Software
Systems Laboratory here for more than 2 years now, programming actively.
My intention is to make my doctoral thesis here.
  I know what an easy and intuitive programming language is. I know what
good programming is. I have been preaching about modularity and high-quality
programming in this news-server so long that most people probably just hate
me for that.
  So please don't underestimate my knowledge.
