According to the blog requirments of a computer language:

1) A language must be predictable.
2) A language must be consistent.
3) A language must be concise.
4) A language must be reliable.
5) A language must be debuggable.

I do not know of any computer language that meets these. Ada get close
I suppose. But I would say most computer languages would fail on  1,2 and 4.
