Optimizing Brainfuck interpreter that runs on .NET 5.
You will need the .NET SDK, which can be found here.
To build, run dotnet build in the repo's root directory.
To run the interpreter, run dotnet run <file> (e.g. dotnet run Examples/HelloWorld.bf). This will also build the project if it was not built beforehand.
Since Brainfuck's syntax and semantics are not fully agreed upon between different implementations, bfi implements the language as follows:
- Single-line comments are supported, and are introduced by the
#character - Non-whitespace characters that are not BF instructions are not allowed outside comments
- The size of each cell in the memory tape is 1 byte
- The total number of cells in the memory tape is 65536
- Cell values can overflow
BF programs used to test the interpreter can be found in the Examples folder.
Some of the example programs were found on the web. They contain the original copyright notice, as well as the URL they were found at, in their comments.
