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.

thats exactly what the "you get the idea" line meant, i was only giving some examples because if i did itd be literally every language

(also modern c is spaghetti, but old c is even more. legacy code is spaghetti no matter the language)
