brainduck

brainduck is an esoteric programming language based on Brainfuck.

Compilation

You sould compile brainduckc.c and use it like compiler

gcc brainduckc.c -o brainduckc
./brainduckc main.bd [-o OutputPath] [-m MemSize]

By default compile to a.out. Can be configured by -o OutputPath

Syntax

Initial position

By default MemSize = 30'000. Can be configured by -m MemSize

Start position = 0

There must be a main function in your code.

Comments

You can use comment line:

//some comment

Or comment block:

/* line 0
   line 1
   line 2 */

Operations

> - Increase position

< - Decrease position

+ - Increase memory current position

- - Decrease memory current position

, - Read char and put it to memory current position. If EOF - return 0.

This operation is equal to int _ = getchar(); mem[pos] = (_ == -1 ? 0 : _) in C.

. - Write char from memory current position. This operation is equal to putchar(mem[pos]) in C.

[ - If memory current position equal zero - go to the end bracket.

] - Go to the start bracket.

{ - If memory current position equal zero - go to the end bracket.

} - End bracket.

Subtasks

You can create subtasks using syntax:

name: code

For example:

plus10: ++++++++++
plus11: plus10|+

Default Subtasks

n - Print EOL. Equal putchar('\n') in C.

feof - Check EOF in stdin. Equel mem[pos] = feof(stdin) in C.

Subtasks execution

You can call subtasks using syntax:

name|

C inlining

You can inline C code using syntax:

C{C code}

Including

You can include other brainduck file using syntax:

#include filename

Now all paths are relative from compiler. Will be change to relative from current file soon.

examples

Read char, write it and write EOL:

main:,.n|

Write all chars from 1 to 255:

main:+[.+]

Read string until \0, print it reversed and print EOL:

main:>,[>,]<[.<]n|

Print string using C inline code:

main: C{printf("%s\n", "hello from C inline code!");} 

Notes

, will read every char.

If you needn't command line arguments, you can clear them by clearArgs function.
