As a Swede I'm pretty sure Kvikkalkul is not something we'd name a programming language, it sounds more like Norwegian or Icelandish
As a sidenote I heard an anecdote about a guy who programmed warheads. He was writing the detonate code wondering how to exit gracefully when it exploded so he wrote something like:
10: var a=5
20: Detonate()
30: If (a==5) goto 10;
40: Exit;
The logic being that the variable should be empty upon explosion...
