I was inspired by the preview page in this article, showing how Douglas Adams may have wrote a function to list all of the primes less than or equal to a given number: http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2014/11/holiday-reading-for-a-certain-sort-if-hemingway-wrote-javascript/

Below is the code, but I also put it into a JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/b38L4p9q/2/

//Here I am, brain the size of a planet, and they ask me to write JavaScript...
function kevinTheNumberMentioner(_){
  l=[]
  /* mostly harmless --> */ with(l) {

    //Sorry about all this, my babel fish has a headache today...
    for (ll=!+[]+!![];ll<_+(+!![]);ll++) {
      lll=+!![];
      while (ll%++lll);
      //I've got this terrible pain in all the semicolons down my right-hand side.
      (ll==lll)&&push(ll);
    }
    forEach(alert);

  }

  //You're really not going to like this...
  return [!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+[!+[]+!+[]];
}

function primeAlert(n) {
  'use strict';
  var arr = [], m, p;
  for (m = 2; m <= n; m++) {
    p = 1;
    while (m % ++p);
    if (m === p) arr.push(m);
  }
  arr.forEach(alert);
  return '42';
}

function primeAlert(n) {
  'use strict';
  var arr, m, p, r;
  n = Math.floor(+n);
  if (n !== n || n < 2 || n >= Math.pow(2, 53)) return [];
  arr = [];
  for (m = 2; m < n; m++) {
    p = 1;
    r = Math.sqrt(m);
    while (m % ++p && p <= r);
    if (p > r) arr.push(m);
  }
  return arr;
}

i see this as code snippet a professor would put up for us to laugh about then the class would move to efficient code writing and never show that shit again.

Something cool from JavaScript land, as a way to make amends for it's short comings.

I think I learned why undefined will never be a reserved word; much like making typeof null return 'null' it would cause existing code to break, particularly jQuery: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/comp.lang.javascript/Mp5r0WrkyYo/discussion
