When educational or recreational purpose is not the goal

Malbolge is an esoteric, self-altering programming language.

Designed to be nearly impossible to write manually.

Uses ternary memory, nonlinear instruction pointer, and encrypted instructions.

Mostly used for recreational programming, challenges, and code-golf.

Demonstrates extreme obfuscation, Turing-completeness, and computational creativity.

Is Malbolge free?

Yes - interpreters are freely available.

Can I write real programs in Malbolge?

Technically yes, but extremely difficult and impractical.

How many working Malbolge programs exist?

Very few; most are examples or generated code.

Is Malbolge Turing-complete?

Yes - it can theoretically compute any computable function.

Are there interpreters available?

Yes - online and offline interpreters exist in Python, C, and other languages.
