Was just talking about gaming genre names being kinda lame (roguelike? Souls-like? Where's the originality?!) and this just furthers my point as programming and video games are intrinsically linked.

floats, doubles, etc are decimallikes. object-oriented programming languages are c++likes. a string that is just the word “false” is a boollike. any language easier to learn than c++ is a pythonlike. any language harder to learn than c++ is a asmlike. don’t like it? then you’re a naglike. you don’t want to be known as a naglike, do you?

Javascript is all about them boollikes (or as we sometimes call them, booleish).

Haskell, my favorite pythonlike!
