NinetyNineBottlesOfBeerOnTheWallInManyLanguages:
Several pages exist that list programs in incredibly and impressively large numbers of languages that emit the words to the song:
#define TakeOneDown(n) n--
for (BottlesOfBeer = 99; BottlesOfBeer > 0; TakeOneDown(BottlesOfBeer))
{
PassItAround();
}
or perhaps
: BOTTLESOFBEER 100 0 DO 99 I - PASSAROUND LOOP ;
See ForthFlames for a complete implementation. This can even be done in TuringTarpits: see SnuspLanguage.
