You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

((Short description|Programming languages that have small memory footprint, easy to implement, portable and/or minimal))
((More citations needed|date=January 2020))

'''[[Wiktionary:lightweight|Lightweight]] [[programming language]]s''' are designed to have small [[memory footprint]], are easy to implement (important when [[porting]] a language to different computer systems), and/or have [[Minimalism (computing)|minimalist]] syntax and features.<ref>[https://wiki.c2.com/?MinimalistLanguage Minimalist Language] on [[WikiWikiWeb]]</ref>

These programming languages have simple syntax and semantics, so one can learn them quickly and easily. Some lightweight languages (for example [[Lisp (programming language)|Lisp]], [[Forth (programming language)|Forth]], and [[Tcl]]) are so simple to implement that they have many implementations (dialects).<ref>((Cite web|url=https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3417831/if-lisp-is-the-perfect-language-why-are-there-so-many|title = Comparison - if Lisp is the perfect language, why are there so many?))</ref>

==Compiled languages==
===BASIC===
[[BASIC]] implementations like [[Tiny BASIC]] were designed to be lightweight so that they could run on the [[microcomputer]]s of the 1980s, because of memory constraints.

===Forth===
[[Forth (programming language)|Forth]] is a stack-based concatenative imperative programming language using [[reverse polish notation]].

==Toy languages==
===FALSE===
[https://strlen.com/false-language/ FALSE] is a minimalist [[esoteric programming language]], with a complete implementation done in 1024 bytes.

===Brainfuck===
[[Brainfuck (programming language)|Brainfuck]] is an extremely minimalist esoteric programming language.

=== FlipJump ===
[https://esolangs.org/wiki/FlipJump FlipJump] is a minimalistic [[One-instruction set computer]].

==Scripting languages==
===Io===
[[Io (programming language)|Io]] is a prototype-based object-oriented [[scripting language]].

===Lisp===
[[Lisp (programming language)|Lisp]]-like languages are very simple to implement, so there are many lightweight implementations of it.

There are some notable implementations:
* [[newLISP]]
* [[PicoLisp]]
* [[uLisp]]

Derivatives of Lisp:
* [[Pico (programming language)|Pico]]
* [[Rebol]]
* [[Red (programming language)|Red]]
* [[Scheme (programming language)|Scheme]]

===Tcl===
[[Tcl (programming language)|Tcl]]-like languages can be easily implemented because of its simple syntax. Tcl itself maybe not so lightweight, but there exists some, if not many, lightweight implementations of languages which have Tcl-like syntax.<ref>((Cite web|url=http://oldblog.antirez.com/post/picol.html|title=Picol, a TCL interpreter in 550 lines of C code))</ref><ref>((Cite web|url=https://zserge.com/posts/tcl-interpreter/|title = Partcl - a tiny command language))</ref><ref>((Cite web|url=http://runtimeterror.com/tech/lil/|title = Little Interpreted Language))</ref>

==Embedded languages==
===ECMAScript===
There are many embeddable implementation of [[ECMAScript]] like:
* [[Duktape]]
* [[Espruino]]
* [[JerryScript]]
* [[jsish]]
* [[MuJS]]
* [[QuickJS]]

Derivatives of ECMAScript:
* [[Squirrel (programming language)|Squirrel]]

===Lua===
[[Lua (programming language)|Lua]] is a small (C source is approx. 300&nbsp;kB [[tarball (computing)|tarball]], as of version 5.3.5), portable and embeddable scripting language (with [[LuaJIT]] as a JIT compiler improving speed). It can be embedded in applications such as [[computer game]]s to provide runtime scripting capabilities.<ref>[http://lua.org/about.html About Lua]</ref>

===Wren===
[[Wren (programming language)|Wren]] is a small, fast, object-oriented scripting language.<ref>((cite web |url=http://wren.io/ |title=Home |website=wren.io))</ref>
