## Example Code
Here is an example of Joy code:
square_spiral ≡ [_p] [_then] [_else] ifte
square_spiral [_p] [_then] [_else] ifte
_p ≡ [_p0] [_p1] &&
_p0 ≡ [abs] ii <=
_p1 ≡ [<>] [pop !-] ||
_p [_p0] [_p1] &&
_p0 [abs] ii <=
_p1 [<>] [pop !-] ||
_then ≡ [ !-] [[++]] [[--]] ifte dip
_else ≡ [pop !-] [--] [++] ifte
_then [ !-] [[++]] [[--]] ifte dip
_else [pop !-] [--] [++] ifte
It might seem unreadable but with a little familiarity it becomes just as legible as any other notation.
