As does PostScript (which, despite its reputation as a printer format,
is really a full-fledged programming language). I suspect that people
who didn't grow up with RPN (i.e. H/P calculators) find it amazingly
obtuse. In much the same way I find Objective-C amazingly obtuse. Oh,
wait, that's the other thread.
