năuc

Năuc (/nəuk/) is a simple brainfuck interpreter and compiler.

By default, the memory is made up of 30000 one-byte cells. The number of cells is configurable via a command line flag. The cell values are unsigned and wrap by default. Wrapping is configurable.

Other stuff which will be configurable:

• cell size in bits
• cell signed-ness

Caution

The compiler is far from perfect and currently a work-in-progress. It does very basic optimizations and is also probably extremely buggy.

Note

• The compiler only supports x86_64 Linux.
• It also uses the nasm assembler as a runtime dependency, so make sure you have it installed.
