///

/// (pronounced "slashes"), or Slashalash, is a minimalist Turing-complete esoteric programming language, invented by Tanner Swett (User:Ihope127) in 2006 based on the "s/foo/bar/" notation that everybody seemed to be using in IRC. The only operation is repeated string substitution, using the syntax /pattern/replacement/. Despite its extreme simplicity – there isn't even an obvious way to create a loop – it was proved Turing-complete by Ørjan Johansen in 2009, who created an interpreter for the Turing-complete language Bitwise Cyclic Tag.
Both "///" and "Slashalash" are equally valid names for the language. The language was named /// in 2006, and the author gave the language the additional name Slashalash in 2022. The new name may be preferable since it's easier to search for.
==Description==
If the program is empty, execution halts. Otherwise, the first character is taken, and execution proceeds as follows:
* If the character is \, the character after it (if any) is printed and both characters are removed from the program.
* If the character is /, it is removed, the pattern and replacement are identified and a substitution is performed.
* Otherwise, the character is printed and removed.
The execution process then starts over again with the modified program.
===Pattern===
A substitution starts by reading characters in a loop to make up the pattern, as follows:
* If the character read is \, the character after it is added to the pattern, and both characters are removed.
* If the character read is /, it is removed, and the pattern-reading process ends.
* Otherwise, the character is added to the pattern and removed.
If this process reaches the end of the program without reaching a terminating /, then the program halts. 
===Replacement===
Otherwise, the same process is repeated again, making up the replacement. 
* If the character read is \, the character after it is added to the replacement, and both characters are removed.
* If the character read is /, it is removed, and the replacement-reading process ends.
* Otherwise, the character is added to the replacement and removed.
Again, if no terminating / is reached, the program halts.
===Substitution===
Now that the pattern and replacement have both been read, the substitution process begins. 
If the pattern is empty, then the program loops forever (which is the mathematically obvious result of replacing all occurrences of the empty string). If there are no occurrences of the pattern in the rest of the program, then the substitution ends. Otherwise, the first occurrence in the text is replaced by the replacement, and the substitution repeats.
Note that a replacement which contains the pattern will cause an infinite loop; for example, /foo/foobar/foo will evolve as follows (one step per line):
 /foo/foobar/foo
 foobar
 foobarbar
 foobarbarbar
 ...
As the substitution process never ends, the program never halts, and nothing is printed.
Such an infinite loop is possible even without a replacement containing the pattern, e.g. /ab/bbaa/abb:
 /ab/bbaa/abb
 abb
 bbaab
 bbabbaa
 bbbbaabaa
 bbbbabbaaaa
 ...
The pattern that this sequence follows is bnabban → bn+2aaban → bn+2abban+2.
==Examples==
===Hello, world!===
A "Hello, world!" program and (cheating) quine:
 Hello, world!
A slightly more elaborate "Hello, world!"
 / world! world!/Hello,/ world! world! world!
Here, the first occurrence of " world! world!" is replaced with "Hello,", yielding "Hello, world!". This is then printed.
An even more elaborate "Hello, world!" program, where the first replacement modifies the second:
 /foo/Hello, world!//bar/foo/bar
First, foo is replaced with "Hello, world!", yielding /bar/Hello, world!/bar. This turns the bar into "Hello, world!" as well, which is then printed.
A yet even more elaborate "Hello, world!'
 /a/\//ab/world!/ab world!/Hello, aworld! bworld!
a is replaced with a slash, and then b is replaced with world. A slightly varied version of the second hello world is then run.

No more bottles of beer on the wall.
Note the brackets, which are not part of the language itself: these are used to mark unnecessary ("comment") line breaks, and are removed at the beginning by the very first replacement of the program. The symbols #, $ and % make up a simple data compression scheme which shrinks most of the bulk from the program.
Since characters other than / and \ are used only for printing, they aren't necessary for writing programs. However, they might make good comments as well as data representations, as long as you don't try to execute them. You may want to write code to strip the comments out.

This program works similarly to the above one, but with some improvements.
First, a substitution is made from NL to a newline.
V is replaced with a section of the song, 10 verses long but spanning 11, in which all the numbers have the same tens digit (at first 9, which does not actually exist in the song), and I is replaced with the first such section, which is cut off at the beginning.
The first section is printed.
Then, a replacement changes the tens digits (identified by being preceded by a newline) to those of the next section, which is then printed.
This repeats until the last section, where some extra substitutions handle the changes there.

===Binary to unary conversion===
 /1/0*//*0/0**//0//100010
The above also shows that a single substitution can blow up the size of the program exponentially, even if it halts.
===Unary to binary conversion===
 /*/>01//1>/1//10/01//011/1\0//01/_1//_///>0/>//>//**********************************
This program takes a number expressed in unary notation as a row of * and returns its binary representation (with the number zero represented as an empty string rather than as 0). The symbols > and _ are auxiliary and can be changed (consistently) for any other symbols different than 0, 1 and *.
The conversion is done in three logical steps:
# The first three substitutions (/*/>01/, /1>/1/ & /10/01/) transform a row of N * into a single > followed by a row of N 0s followed by a row of N 1s. This preprocessing step puts a cursor (the >) before a number expressed in unary notation (the row of 1s) with enough preceding 0s to apply the unary to binary conversion safely (since the binary representation of a number N always has at most N digits).
# The next three substitutions (/011/10/, /01/_1/ & /_//) perform the unary to binary conversion (reversing the unary to binary conversion example above).
# The two remaining substitutions (/>0/>/ & />//) use the cursor > to remove the unused preceding 0s and the cursor itself.

This program by Ørjan Johansen loops indefinitely, (slowly) printing longer and longer lines of asterisks. It was generated semi-automatically from a Haskell program (but don't panic, to cut short on my usually lethal over-engineering I ended up using no monads outside the main function).
We use the same trick as in the bottles of beer program of inserting line breaks between ][, which are removed at the beginning. We also change all +'s into newlines, although this only affects printing (and was done to save having more different characters in the main loop)
The "obvious" (and perhaps only) way of looping indefinitely in /// is by program self replication, which here happens into the -- spots in the final line. One of the copies needs to be recopied, which means first re-escaping slashes and backslashes, but without clobbering the rest of the program this is hard to do without marking that copy in some way, which here is done by surrounding all the characters by |'s. We make sure not to have literal |/| or |\| anywhere else in the main program.
But then we first need to remove those |'s from the copy of the program that actually "runs" at the next iteration. We cannot do that with a simple substitution, because such a substitution is local and cannot see context enough to avoid clobbering the other copy which needs to preserve the |'s. (This conclusion turns out to be wrong. See the simplified program below.)
The information about which copy is which cannot be inside it, since they are initially identical. Instead we put ++ before the copy that is to be run next. Now to remove the |'s from that copy we have to gradually substitute, using the ++ to scan through the copy.
This requires iteration, but fortunately we don't need an unbounded loop, or else we would have an infinite recursion. Instead we calculate an upper bound for the length of the copy (making sure to include the increasing length of the counter), and make that many copies of the subprogram that scans ++ (at least) one step.
That subprogram itself needs to contain one substitution for each different character used in the main loop, which is why I have kept that number down to six, making the subprogram 71 characters long. We overestimate copied program length a bit for ease of calculation, (3*27+2) on the first iteration, giving a total scanner length of 27406 characters.
Other than this, we make sure to print the counter as asterisks, and increment it in the next iteration program copies.

The original counter loop was based on the mistaken belief that it was impossible to distinguish two copies of program code without scanning through them. But after my morning coffee I realized that there was a simple way to distinguish them: Copy one of them again to another place. This will remove some backslashes from just that copy, and if we choose a suitable quoting scheme, we can then do just a few substitutions to turn one copy into the original quoted form, and the other into the final program.
This is much more efficient than scanning, and we also don't need to minimize the number of characters used for efficiency, so the program can use more mnemonic "tokens".
The quoting scheme used here is as follows for a character c:
 |c original quoted program source
 <-\\>\\\c runtime quoted form
 <-\>\c after copying once
 <->c after copying twice
 c "runnable" code
Using three characters <-> gives a slightly shorter set of substitutions and saves a total of 5 characters in the source program compared to just <>, at the cost of a longer runtime program. A version using only <> can be found here.
While it should be harmless to quote all characters, this is not necessary. / and \ need quoting, and there should be a quoting break inside any "tokens" or other strings that are substituted in the main program, so that their quoted form is not affected unless that is what you actually want. As usual some care must be taken to avoid confusing any strings, in particular | and <-> cannot occur in the unquoted program with this scheme.
===Bitwise Cyclic Tag interpreter===
This interpreter for the language Bitwise Cyclic Tag was generated using this Haskell program.
The BCT program and data can be changed by modifying the strings after (P| and (D| near the beginning. (The empty program and the program containing just 1 are not supported.)
As the BCT page suggests is enough for Turing-completeness, it (slowly!) prints out the sequence of deleted data bits as 0 = /, 1 = \.
All characters except / and \ are replaced before the main loop is entered, showing that /// is Turing-complete even when restricted to those two characters.
===Quines===
Since any /// program not containing / or \ is trivially a quine, here is one containing only / and \.

==Implementations==
===Perl interpreter===
The below implementation is appropriately written in the Perl language, well-known for also supporting a /// construction.
 #!/usr/bin/perl -w
 
 my $debug =
 ($#ARGV >= 0 and $ARGV[0] =~ m/^-d([1-2]?)$/ and shift and ($1 || 1));
 $| = 1;
 
 $_ = join '', <>;
 while (1) {
 print "\n[", $_, "]" if $debug == 1;
 if (s!^([^/\\]+)!! or s!^\\(.)!!s) {
 print($1);
 print "\n[", $_, "]" if $debug == 2;
 }
 elsif (s!^/((?:[^/\\]|\\.)*)/((?:[^/\\]|\\.)*)/!!s) {
 my ($s,$d) = ($1,$2);
 $s =~ s/\\(.)/$1/gs;
 $d =~ s/\\(.)/$1/gs;
 while (s/(?:\Q$s\E)/$d/) { }
 }
 else { last; }
 }
===Python interpreter===
A very compact Python interpreter:
 def slashes(s):
 while s:
 buff = ["","",1]
 for t in (0,1,2):
 while s:
 if s[0] == "/" : s = s[1:]; break
 if s[0] == "\\": s = s[1:]
 if t: buff[t-1] += s[0]; s = s[1:]
 else: yield s[0]; s = s[1:]
 while s and buff[0] in s: s = s.replace(*buff)
The interpreter returns a generator function that yields the output one character at a time. Example of usage:
 output = "".join(slashes(r"/*/#<//<#/#//</\/.\/\/.0//#/\/.\\0\/,\\,0,\\,1\/\/.\\1\/,\\,1,\\,0\/\/,\\,\/.\//********"))
Note that since python uses \ as escape character you need to use raw strings.
