There are many programming languages exist such as C, C++, Python, Java, etc.
All these programming languages are used to create operating systems, software, and applications. But In this techie world, there are many hardest programming languages.
Many programmers are never heard about these programming languages.

Top 6 Hardest Programming Languages |
In this article, we will discuss the top six hardest programming languages. All these programming languages are esoteric programming languages.
What is Esoteric Programming Language?
Esoteric programming language is a programming language that is designed for testing the boundaries of computer programming languages.
Top 6 Hardest Programming Languages:
- Brainfuck:
Brainfuck is an esoteric programming language developed by Urban Muller in 1993. The Brainfuck languages consist of eight commands. Maybe it seems like simple language and easy language for a beginner programmer or a normal person but a professional programmer can understand what challenges occur.
- Cow:
I know the cow is an animal but in computer science is a programming language. Cow is an esoteric programming language created in 2003 by Sean Heber. In this language, there are twelve commands more than Brainfuck language. The commands are moos, mOo, moO, mOO so on.
- Malbolge:
Malbolge is also an esoteric programming language created in 1998 by Ben Olmstead. It is more difficult earlier challenging esoteric programming languages ( Brainfuck & Cow). It was very difficult when it arrived.
- Intercal:
Intercal is also an esoteric programming language that was created in 1972 and created by two Princeton university students Don Woods and James M. Lyon. It is also a very hardest programming language. In this language, the please keyword is mandatory to use four times.
- Whitespace:
I have already mentioned in this article that all programming languages are esoteric. So, Whitespace is also an esoteric programming language that was created in 2003 and developed by Edwin Brady and Chris Morris. The interesting part of this language is the interpreter only accepts whitespace and ignored of all non-whitespace characters.
