Monty 0.98

Monty 0.98 is a scripting language that is first compiled into Monty byte codes (Just like Python). It relies on a unique stack, with specific instructions to manipulate it. The goal of this project is to create an interpreter for Monty ByteCodes files.

General Information and contents

The monty program

  • Usage: monty file where file is the path to the file containing Monty byte code
  • If the user does not give any file or more than one argument to your program, print the error message USAGE: monty file, followed by a new line, and exit with the status EXIT_FAILURE
  • If, for any reason, it’s not possible to open the file, print the error message Error: Can't open file , followed by a new line, and exit with the status EXIT_FAILURE where is the name of the file
  • If the file contains an invalid instruction, print the error message L<line_number>: unknown instruction , followed by a new line, and exit with the status EXIT_FAILURE where is the line number where the instruction appears. Line numbers always start at 1
  • The monty program runs the bytecodes line by line and stop if either: it executed properly every line of the file it finds an error in the file an error occured
  • If you can’t malloc anymore, print the error message Error: malloc failed, followed by a new line, and exit with status EXIT_FAILURE.
  • You have to use malloc and free and are not allowed to use any other function from man malloc (realloc, calloc, …)
