→ Polyglot (computing)
What I’m looking at on Wikipedia, right now.
In the context of computing, a polyglot is a computer program or script written in a valid form of multiple programming languages, which performs the same operations or output independently of the programming language used to compile or interpret it.
Here’s more from this article:
The two most commonly used techniques for constructing a polyglot program are to make liberal use of languages which use different characters for comments and to redefine various tokens as others in different languages.
Weird stuff. Check out the example of the article to see such a “thing”.
