How I wish I could say I speak 70+ programming languages, but alas, they're all from Rosetta Code.[1] I would like to show a variety of "tasks", as the site calls them, but scraping seems like it would be a pain, so I went with the most interesting problem with a solid number of samples. As for the architecture, it's pretty much just a Ruby hash from language to code, and then a bit of CoffeeScript to glue everything together.

I knew it was from Rosetta -- coincidentally, only a few days ago I submitted my own entry there http://rosettacode.org/wiki/99_Bottles_of_Beer#Fexl .
