Programming language for self-modifying code?
Malbolge would be a good place to start. Every instruction is self-modifying, and it's a lot of fun(*) to play with.
(*) Disclaimer: May not actually be fun.
I highly recommend Lisp. Lisp data can be read and exec'd as code. Lisp code can be written out as data.
It is considered one of the canonical self-modifiable languages.
Example list(data):
'(+ 1 2 3)
or, calling the data as code
(eval '(+ 1 2 3))
runs the + function.
You can also go in and edit the members of the lists on the fly.
edit:
I wrote a program to dynamically generate a program and evaluate it on the fly, then report to me how it did compared to a baseline(div by 0 was the usual report, ha).
