Brainfuck Compiler with Optimizer

A Brainfuck compiler and interpreter written in Rust, featuring an optimizer to improve program performance. This project allows you to execute Brainfuck programs, start an interactive REPL session, and generate optimized C code from Brainfuck scripts.

Features

• Execute Brainfuck programs directly from a file.
• Interactive REPL for experimenting with Brainfuck code.
• Generate optimized C code from Brainfuck programs.
• Built-in optimizer reduces unnecessary instructions and improves performance.

Installation

Make sure you have Rust installed.

Clone the repository and build the project:

git clone <repository-url>
cd <project-directory>
cargo build --release

The compiled binary will be located at target/release/bf.

Usage

bf [command] [options]

Commands

• run <filename> Execute a Brainfuck script from a file. The optimizer is applied automatically to improve execution speed.

  bf run hello.bf

• repl Start an interactive Brainfuck REPL session. Optimizations are applied to your code in real-time.

  bf repl

• gen-c <filename> Generate optimized C source code from a Brainfuck script. The output file will have the same name as the input file but with a .c extension.

  bf gen-c hello.bf
  gcc hello.c -o hello
  ./hello

Example

The examples directory contains several Brainfuck scripts demonstrating different features.
