Assembler, BASIC, Old C code, Cobol...

...Pascal, Fortran, Prolog, Lisp, Modern C code, PHP, Java, Python, C++, Lua, JavaScript, C#, Rust...

The list is infinite.

Show me a language in which it is impossible to write spaghetti code, and I'll show you someone who can't recognize spaghetti code when it's written in one of their favourite languages.

The obvious solution is to use Rust's upcoming "spaghetti checker" feature. Once the compiler decides that your code is too messy to be maintainable, it refuses to compile.
