Usage

The programm has one argument that is the file which contains the brainfuck code to implement.

Brainfuck

Brainfuck is an esoteric programming language noted for its extreme minimalism. The language consists of only eight simple commands and an instruction pointer. It is a Turing tarpit, designed to challenge and amuse programmers, and was not made to be suitable for practical use. It was created in 1993 by Urban Müller.

Code:

tokenmeaning
>increment the data pointer (to point to the next cell to the right).
<decrement the data pointer (to point to the next cell to the left).
+increment (increase by one) the byte at the data pointer.
-decrement (decrease by one) the byte at the data pointer.
.output the byte at the data pointer.
,accept one byte of input, storing its value in the byte at the data pointer.
[if the byte at the data pointer is zero, then instead of moving the instruction pointer forward to the next command, jump it forward to the command after the matching ] command.
]if the byte at the data pointer is nonzero, then instead of moving the instruction pointer forward to the next command, jump it back to the command after the matching [ command.

Compilation

Linux:

To compile under linux you have to link it with the ncurses libary (gcc main_linux.c -lncurses) that has to be installed on the computer.

Windows:

To compile under windows just compile the main_windows.c. The windows version uses the standard conio.h header.
