# [NTFJ](https://github.com/ConorOBrien-Foxx/NTFJ/), 118 bytes NTFJ is an esoteric programming language intended to be a Turing tarpit. It is stack-based, and pushes bits to the stack, which can be later coalesced to an 8-bit number. I believe that this is the optimal, using a loop. (Maybe something can be done by hard-coding `@` into the string, which would allow for us to double the `l`. I haven't checked, but I believe this would come out as more bytes.) Anyhow, this is the full code: ~~#~~~~#~##~~#~~~##~##~~~###~~#~~##~####~#~#~###~~#~~~~~~~#~##~~~##~####~##~##~~~##~##~~~##~~#~#~#~~#~~~@(*~##~#~~~@^) Or, more readable: ~~#~~~~#~##~~#~~~##~##~~~###~~#~~##~####~#~#~###~~#~~~~~~~#~##~~~##~####~##~##~~~##~##~~~##~~ #~#~#~~#~~~@(*~##~#~~~@^) All the `~`s push `0` and the `#`s push `1`. The interesting part is the output loop: @(*~##~#~~~@^) @ Coalesce to bit (top 8 items); is 0 on an empty stack ( ) Skip the inside if the top of the stack is not truthy. * Output as character. ~##~#~~~@ Push 104 to the stack ^ Jump to index 104, which is right here --. ^._____________________________________________________/ The interpreter is [here](http://conorobrien-foxx.github.io/NTFJ/), but with no permalinks as of yet. <s>Boring</s> Loop-less version, 130 bytes: ~#~~#~~~@*~##~~#~#@*~##~##~~@*~##~##~~@*~##~####@*~~#~##~~@*~~#~~~~~@*~#~#~###@*~##~####@*~###~~#~@*~##~##~~@*~##~~#~~@*~~#~~~~#@* Doubling (`:`) the `l` character, 122 bytes: ~#~~#~~~@*~##~~#~#@*~##~##~~@:**~##~####@*~~#~##~~@*~~#~~~~~@*~#~#~###@*~##~####@*~###~~#~@*~##~##~~@*~##~~#~~@*~~#~~~~#@*
