Grook is an esolang inspired by Ook!. Like its inspiration, Grook is intended to be writeable by someone other than humans; in this case, it is meant for use by a certain loveable Marvel Character.
The repository contains several files related to the generation and running of Grook code. Please see the short descriptions of each below.
Grook is in no way associated with or funded by Marvel or any other company. This is purely for fun!
The convert_to_grook.py file serves the purpose of generating Grook code. It is a simple
translator for code from Brainf*ck to Grook. It can be
called as follows:
usage: convert_to_grook.py [-h] [--output OUTPUT] input
positional arguments:
input the input file to convert
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--output OUTPUT, -o OUTPUT
the output file to write to
The grook.py file serves as an interpreter for Grook code. It was adapted from Elliot Chance's
guide Write Your Own Brainfck Interpreter*, which can be found
here.
It can be called as follows:
usage: grook.py [-h] [--save-generated] input
positional arguments:
input the input Grook file to run
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--save-generated, -s save the generated lex and yacc files
The examples directory includes example files related to the Grook language and translating to it.
This is an ongoing project; it does not have a full set of Turing operations, as the input delimeter is currently ignored. There are other areas for improvement. Please feel free to open any Issues or Pull Requests against the repository. Thanks in advance!
