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.

​🧑‍💻​ C - Stacks, Queues - LIFO, FIFO

Learning Objectives


At the end of this project, you are expected to be able to explain to anyone, without the help of Google:

General

  • What do LIFO and FIFO mean
  • What is a stack, and when to use it
  • What is a queue, and when to use it
  • What are the common implementations of stacks and queues
  • What are the most common use cases of stacks and queues
  • What is the proper way to use global variables

Requirements


General

  • Allowed editors: vi, vim, emacs
  • All your files will be compiled on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS using gcc, using the options -Wall -Werror -Wextra -pedantic -std=gnu89.
  • All your files should end with a new line.
  • A README.md file, at the root of the folder of the project is mandatory.
  • Your code should use the Betty style. It will be checked using betty-style.pl and betty-doc.pl
  • You allowed to use a maximum of one global variable.
  • No more than 5 functions per file.
  • You are allowed to use the C standard library.
  • The prototypes of all your functions should be included in your header file called monty.h.
  • All your header files should be include guarded

{
        char *opcode;

Compilation & Output


The code will be compiled this way:

$ gcc -Wall -Werror -Wextra -pedantic -std=gnu89 *.c -o monty

  • Any output must be printed on stdout
  • Any error message must be printed on stderr

​💥​ The Monty language


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.

Monty byte code files


Files containing Monty byte codes usually have the .m extension. Most of the industry uses this standard but it is not required by the specification of the language. There is not more than one instruction per line. There can be any number of spaces before or after the opcode and its argument:

group_luis_carlos@ubuntu:~/monty$ cat -e bytecodes/000.m
push 0$
push 1$
push 2$
  push 3$
                   pall    $
push 4$
    push 5    $
      push    6        $
pall$
group_luis_carlos@ubuntu:~/monty$

Monty byte code files can contain blank lines (empty or made of spaces only, and any additional text after the opcode or its required argument is not taken into account:

group_luis_carlos@ubuntu:~/monty$ cat -e bytecodes/001.m
push 0 Push 0 onto the stack$
push 1 Push 1 onto the stack$
$
push 2$
  push 3$
                   pall    $
$
$
                           $
push 4$
$
    push 5    $
      push    6        $
$
pall This is the end of our program. Monty is awesome!$

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 <file>, followed by a new line, and exit with the status EXIT_FAILURE
    • where <file> is the name of the file.
  • If the file contains an invalid instruction, print the error message L<line_number>: unknown instruction <opcode>, 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, …)

Opcodes


Opcode Description
push The opcode push pushes an element to the stack.
pall The opcode pall prints all the values on the stack, starting from the top of the stack.
pint The opcode pint prints the value at the top of the stack, followed by a new line.
pop The opcode pop removes the top element of the stack.
swap The opcode swap swaps the top two elements of the stack.
add The opcode add adds the top two elements of the stack.
nop The opcode nop doesn’t do anything.
sub The opcode sub subtracts the top element of the stack from the second top element of the stack.
div The opcode div divides the second top element of the stack by the top element of the stack.
mul The opcode mul multiplies the second top element of the stack with the top element of the stack.
mod The opcode mod computes the rest of the division of the second top element of the stack by the top element of the stack.
pchar The opcode pchar prints the char at the top of the stack, followed by a new line.
pstr The opcode pstr prints the string starting at the top of the stack, followed by a new line.
rotl The opcode rotl rotates the stack to the top.
rotr The opcode rotr rotates the stack to the bottom.
stack The opcode stack sets the format of the data to a stack (LIFO). This is the default behavior of the program.
queue The opcode queue sets the format of the data to a queue (FIFO).

🧠​ Brainf*ck script

Brainfuck is an esoteric programming language created in 1993 by Urban Müller.

Notable for its extreme minimalism, the language consists of only eight simple commands, a data pointer and an instruction pointer. While it is fully Turing complete, it is not intended for practical use, but to challenge and amuse programmers.

Brainf*ck simply requires one to break commands into microscopic steps.

The language's name is a reference to the slang term brainfuck, which refers to things so complicated or unusual that they exceed the limits of one's understanding.

You can install the bf interpreter to test your code: sudo apt-get install bf

This script is in bf folder.

Scripts


Files Description
1000-school.bf Write a Brainf*ck script that prints School, followed by a new line
1001-add.bf Add two digits given by the user.
1002-mul.bf Multiply two digits given by the user.
1003-mul.bf Read the two digits from stdin, multiply them, and print the result, followed by a new line.
