在PowerShell中，你可以重命名变量:

> $a = "some value"
> $b = "a"
> $c = "d"
> Rename-Item variable:$b $c
> $d
some value

间接间接!PHP!

字面也有用:

> Rename-Item variable:d e
> $e
some value

Python的三元操作符

在Python中，C三元操作符(c++示例:bool isNegative = i < 0 ?True: false;)可用作语法糖:

>>> i = 1
>>> "It is positive" if i >= 0 else "It is negative!"
'It is positive'
>>> i = -1
>>> "It is positive" if i >= 0 else "It is negative!"
'It is negative!'

这并不奇怪，而是一种特征。奇怪的是，与C中的顺序(条件?答:b)。

Java;使所有对象实例都是互斥对象。

INTERCAL可能是最奇怪的语言特征的最佳汇编。我个人最喜欢的是COMEFROM语句，它(几乎)与GOTO相反。

COMEFROM is roughly the opposite of GOTO in that it can take the execution state from any arbitrary point in code to a COMEFROM statement. The point in code where the state transfer happens is usually given as a parameter to COMEFROM. Whether the transfer happens before or after the instruction at the specified transfer point depends on the language used. Depending on the language used, multiple COMEFROMs referencing the same departure point may be invalid, be non-deterministic, be executed in some sort of defined priority, or even induce parallel or otherwise concurrent execution as seen in Threaded Intercal. A simple example of a "COMEFROM x" statement is a label x (which does not need to be physically located anywhere near its corresponding COMEFROM) that acts as a "trap door". When code execution reaches the label, control gets passed to the statement following the COMEFROM. The effect of this is primarily to make debugging (and understanding the control flow of the program) extremely difficult, since there is no indication near the label that control will mysteriously jump to another point of the program.

在FoxPro中，如果我没记错的话，每个命令都可以缩写为4个字符，其他的都被忽略，所以READ, READY, READINESS都是一样的——前4个字符之后的都被忽略。向我解释的人喜欢这个功能，但我觉得它很恐怖。

Perl的$[(已弃用)，这在之前关于通用Perl变量的另一篇文章中提到过，但它值得特别提到，并有更好的解释。对$[的更改仅限于当前范围。更多的信息以及如何使用它的含义;)可以在$[中找到，请访问http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl/?node_id=480333
