I love this language. ## Explanation There are two pyramid chains. The first is: ^ / \ /set\ ^-----^ /a\ /#\ --- ^--- /l\ /ine\ ----- This `set`s variable `a` to `line` (a line read from STDIN), as a value (`#`). The second: ^ / \ /do \ ^-----^ /a\ / \ --- /out\ ^----- /a\ --- This is a `do while` loop, with the left pyramid being the condition, and the right one being the body. Equivalent to: do { out(a); } while(a); which is what we want.
