This ALX Software Engineering project is a custom ByteCode interpreter, coded in C.
- C
The program reads from the file "byte_file.m" that contains one instruction per line. It then calls the right function to modify a stack according to the instruction. It prints custom error messages if the instruction is wrong.
Please use GCC 4.8.4 compiler or later.
To get a local copy up and running follow these simple example steps.
$ git clone https://github.com/kingsleyocran/monty.git
$ cd monty
$ gcc -Wall -Werror -Wextra -pedantic -std=c89 *.c -o monty
./monty byte_file.m
Listed below are the opcodes to can be used in monty:
| opcode | Function |
|---|---|
| push | Pushes an element to the stack |
| pall | Prints all the values on the stack, starting from the top of the stack |
| pint | prints the value at the top of the stack, followed by a new line |
| pop | Removes the top element of the stack |
| swap | Swaps the top two elements of the stack |
| add | Adds the top two elements of the stack |
| nop | Doesn’t do anything |
| sub | Subtracts the top element of the stack from the second top element of the stack. |
| div | Divides the second top element of the stack by the top element of the stack. |
| mul | Multiplies the second top element of the stack with the top element of the stack. |
| mod | Computes the rest of the division of the second top element of the stack by the top element of the stack. |
| pchar | Prints the char at the top of the stack, followed by a new line. |
| pstr | Prints the string starting at the top of the stack, followed by a new line. |
