Apparently, this is the code for a Hello World program in Malbolge:

(=<#9]~6ZY327Uv4-QsqpMn&+Ij"'E%e{Ab~w=_:]Kw%o44Uqp0/Q?xNvL:H%c#DD2^WV>gY;dts76qKJImZkj

Looks like the backticks in the program messed up the formatting a bit, here's it with fixed formatting.

(=<`#9]~6ZY327Uv4-QsqpMn&+Ij"'E%e{Ab~w=_:]Kw%o44Uqp0/Q?xNvL:`H%c#DD2^WV>gY;dts76qKJImZkj

Not that it's any more intelligible. :D

Huh. Looks just like Perl.

And I've heard it took years until someone managed to do it
