  Joy
       
           A functional programming language by Manfred von
          Thun.  Joy is unusual because it is not based on lambda
          calculus, but on the composition of functions.  Functions
          take a stack as argument, consume any number of parameters
          from it, and return it with any number of results on it.  The
          concatenation of programs denotes the composition of
          functions.  One of the datatypes of Joy is that of quoted
          programs, of which lists are a special case.
