Talking of alternative-world: I think anything by Chuck Moore falls in its own world (http://www.colorforth.com).

He even wrote an (unpublished) book about programming with as third basic principle "Do It Yourself!" (Aka "Invent The Wheel!"; http://www.colorforth.com/POL.htm). That alone moves it into its own universe. If you don't think so, read on to "Make variables as GLOBAL as possible. Why not? You can save some space and clarify your requirements"

But programs in the Chuck Moore universe have a total size measured in hundreds of words, globals are like function level scope. To go the other direction is code in a purely https://wiki.haskell.org/Pointfree style.
