Malbolge
An intentionally obtuse programming language created by Ben Olmstead in 1998. It was named after the eighth level of hell in Dante's Inferno, a reflection on the arbitrary difficulty that comes with trying to read or code in the language.
Although it was designed to be impossible to code anything useful in, design flaws have been found which have allowed people to code simple programs, such as Hello World.
