FORTH
FORTH is a very simple computer language, but you can do things with it you would never dream of doing in any other language, e.g. jaunting. Basically is a tool for designing a language in which to so solve your problem. It uses postfix notation. So you would say:
2 2 +
instead 
2 + 2
It is similar to PostScript in that the stack is explicit.
