Due to the fact that the last half of its name is often considered one of the most offensive words in the English language, it is sometimes referred to as "brainf***", "brainf*ck", "brainfsck", "b****fuck" <!-- This version a common joke, Right! Got it? -->, "brainf**k", "branflakes", "brainoof", "brainfrick", "bf", etc. This can make it a bit difficult to search for information regarding brainfuck on the web, as the proper name might not be used at all in some articles. - -==Language overview== -Brainfuck operates on an array of memory cells, each initially set to zero. (In the original implementation, the array was 30,000 cells long, but this may not be part of the language specification; different sizes for the array length and cell size give different variants of the language). There is a [[pointer]], initially pointing to the first memory cell. The commands are: - -{| class="wikitable" -!Command -!Description -|- -| style="text-align:center"| <code>&gt;</code> -|Move the pointer to the right -|- -| style="text-align:center"| <code>&lt;</code> -|Move the pointer to the left -|- -| style="text-align:center"| <code><nowiki>+</nowiki></code> -|Increment the memory cell at the pointer -|- -| style="text-align:center"| <code><nowiki>-</nowiki></code> -|Decrement the memory cell at the pointer -|- -| style="text-align:center"| <code>.</code> -|Output the character signified by the cell at the pointer -|- -| style="text-align:center"| <code>,</code> -|Input a character and store it in the cell at the pointer -|- -| style="text-align:center"| <code>[</code> -|Jump past the matching <code>]</code> if the cell at the pointer is 0 -|- -| style="text-align:center"| <code>]</code> -|Jump back to the matching <code>[</code> if the cell at the pointer is nonzero -|} - -All characters other than <code>&gt;&lt;+-.,[]</code> should be considered comments and ignored. But, see extensions below. - -==History== - -Brainfuck was invented by [[Urban Müller]] in [[:Category:1993|1993]], in an attempt to make a language for which he could write the smallest possible [[compiler]] for the Amiga OS, version 2.0. He managed to write a 240-byte compiler. The language was inspired by [[FALSE]], which had a 1024-byte compiler. Müller chose to name the language ''brainfuck'' (with the initial letter in lower case, although it is now often capitalised). - -It is not known to what extent Müller was aware of or influenced by Böhm's language [[P′′]] published in 1964, of which brainfuck can be considered a minor variation. - -==Examples== - -===[[Hello, World!]]=== -This program prints out the words ''Hello World!'': -<div style="border: 1px solid #ddd;padding:1em;background-color:#f9f9f9;font-family: monospace,Courier;"> -<font color="#a52a2a">&nbsp;1&nbsp;</font><font color="#ff00ff">+++++</font>&nbsp;<font color="#ff00ff">+++</font>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<font color="#0000ff">Set Cell #0 to 8</font><br> -<font color="#a52a2a">&nbsp;2&nbsp;</font><font color="#a52a2a"><b>[</b></font><br> -<font color="#a52a2a">&nbsp;3&nbsp;</font>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<font color="#2e8b57"><b>&gt;</b></font><font color="#ff00ff">++++</font>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<font color="#0000ff">Add 4 to Cell #1;

Separate code from input - -The debug command # comes from brainfuck's original interpreter, written by Urban Müller. Because brainfuck programs have only one input source, brainfuck interpreters written in brainfuck (or other languages without file I/O) require ! to be able to distinguish a program's code from the input it is intended to process. - -As all characters other than <code>&gt;&lt;+-.,[]</code> should be considered comments and ignored, it is normal for an interpreter to have a method of disabling these extensions if required. This disabling may be automatic for '!' based on such things as if there is currently an open loop and/or if the program is being read from the 'standard input'. - -As these commands are non-standard some interpreters use different codes for these functions. - -Probably the next most frequently implemented extension is a command to comment out the rest of the line, however, experienced brainfuck programmers generally consider this useless mostly due to the existence of the [[Brainfuck algorithms#Header comment|header comments technique]]. - -==Conventions== -The following summarizes the common conventions for making a brainfuck interpreter or compiler. It can be seen as a general specification for brainfuck, commonly accepted amongst the brainfuck community as a minimal base. -It attempts to solve implementation issues by standardizing them. - -===Memory=== -* Memory should normally consist of 8 bit cells, a very fast compiler may use 32bit or larger cells. Floating point cells are strongly discouraged as are cells that are not a power of two in size. "Bignum" cells are allowed but should be an option. -* Memory should wrap on overflow and underflow. (This also includes the <code>[-]</code> function with "bignum" cells). -* Negative memory addresses should NOT be assumed to exist, however, an interpreter may provide some. (An optimising interpreter may be forced to) -* Memory should consist of at least 30000 cells, some existing brainfuck programs do need more so this should be configurable or unbounded. - -===Input and Output=== - -====Newlines==== -The input should be "line buffered" until the user enters a newline at which point the program receives the edited line. -* OS newlines should be converted to 10 for input. -* 10s should be converted to OS newlines for output. -Note that most programming platforms and programming languages already do this for you, which might make converting 10s to OS newlines redundant. - -====EOF==== -An interpreter should normally either return Zero or leave the cell unchanged on EOF. - -The Zero option matches the brainfuck language in that the only conditional in brainfuck is a comparison with zero. Using this form, in theory, allows slightly shorter code. For eight bit cells the "leave the cell untouched" matches the C/Unix read(2) system call in that the character memory will be left unchanged on EOF. For Unix the EOF (or error) condition is signalled by the return value, which is lost with BF. If the interpreter's cells are more than eight bits the "unchanged cell" can safely handle binary data. If the cells are eight bit or the interpreter sets the cells to zero on EOF binary data cannot be handled. - -For a brainfuck program this means that ASCII data+EOF should be read using a <code>[-],</code> construct (or similar). Binary input should, probably, be read using a construct of the form <code>[-]-,</code>. This requires that input bytes are in the range 0..255 when the cell size exceeds eight bits. - -Note: It is strongly recommended that an interpreter be configurable to all three normal form of EOF (Zero, minus one and unchanged). - -====Character set==== -The original brainfuck interpreter used the native character set of the host, ISO8859-1. Most modern brainfuck interpreters do the same, so this means that many current implementations will used UTF-8 as the character set and have access to ANSI control sequences. The majority of brainfuck programs only use ASCII with newlines, but the few that use extended sets follow the UTF-8+Ansi pattern. - -====GUI and Other I/O==== -=====GUI Pong / Simple UNIX Shell===== - -Using a [https://github.com/lestrozi/pipevm Virtual Machine controlled via stdin/out], here's a [https://github.com/lestrozi/pipevm/blob/main/tests/bfponggen.py Pong implementation] and [https://github.com/lestrozi/pipevm/blob/main/tests/sh.bf a simple UNIX shell implementation (that actually controls a real filesystem)] - -=====PPM file output===== -For a more trivial output the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netpbm PPM, PGM and PPM formats or Netpbm] can be generated in a simple format as plain (ASCII) text. - -[[File:Pong.gif]] -[[File:Shell.gif|x238px]] -[[File:Mandelbrot-mono-bf.png|x238px]] - -===Implementation issues=== - -Brainfuck leaves a lot of things up to the implementation to decide, such as array and cell size, and what happens when EOF is read. - -====Memory and wrapping==== -The size of the cells and the cell array varies a lot in different implementations. A usual implementation will have either 8bit or 32bit cells with 30000 cells (in the positive direction). For Turing completeness either the number of cells must be unbounded or (at least) three unbounded cells are required, the former is usually assumed. - -Urban Müller's compiler used an array of 30000 cells 8bit cells, while the interpreter only allowed 100 (of 5000) to be used. As the compiler was written in assembler there is no indication as to whether the cells are to be assumed to be signed or unsigned and the overflow semantics are of the usual twos complement (or unsigned byte) wrapping form. The interpreter uses signed 8bit characters (-128 to 127 range). - -Other interpreters normally use a similar layout, however, some allow cells to the left of the start position or use different allowed ranges of cell values. Some limit the cells to only positive values or other reduced ranges, others allow a larger range including 'floating point' (which would usually be in effect a 53bit integer without wrapping) or even completely unbounded integers. - -Note, that it's not possible for a brainfuck program to determine if its integers are officially signed or unsigned unless they are also non-wrapping. If the cells don't wrap then the loops [-] and [+] used after an number in the opposite direction will cause a crash (ie: an exception or a hang). Most optimisers will therefore assume these sequences set a zero even with unbounded integers. - -Even with wrapping cells code can be written that depends on the cell size for example [[Brainfuck_bitwidth_conversions#Multiple_conversions|Brainfuck bitwidth conversions]] or the code below (which only works correctly with 8bits). - - <font color="#c000c0">+</font><font color="#804000">[[</font><font color="#c000c0">-</font><font color="#008000">&gt;</font><font color="#804000">]</font><font color="#c000c0">-</font><font color="#804000">[</font><font color="#c000c0">-</font><font color="#008000">&lt;</font><font color="#804000">]</font><font color="#008000">&gt;</font><font color="#c000c0">-</font><font color="#804000">]</font><font color="#008000">&gt;</font><font color="#c00000">.</font><font color="#008000">&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;</font><font color="#c00000">.</font><font color="#008000">&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;</font><font color="#c000c0">-</font><font color="#c00000">.</font><font color="#008000">&gt;&gt;</font><font color="#c000c0">-</font><font color="#c00000">.</font><font color="#008000">&gt;</font><font color="#c00000">.</font><font color="#008000">&lt;&lt;</font><font color="#c00000">.</font><font color="#008000">&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;</font><font color="#c000c0">-</font><font color="#c00000">.</font><font color="#008000">&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;</font><font color="#c000c0">++</font><font color="#c00000">.</font><font color="#008000">&gt;&gt;</font><font color="#c000c0">++</font><font color="#c00000">.</font> - -====Newlines==== -The vast majority of brainfuck programs, following Urban Müller's original example programs, use 10 as newline on both input and output; this is also the convention used by Unix-based operating systems, including Linux and Mac OS X. Some other operating systems use different conventions for newline, and may use different conventions on input and on output, and different conventions in different programming environments (e.g. C versus assembly language). Several solutions to the problem are possible: - -* Write brainfuck programs to accept multiple linefeed conventions. (Possible, though clunky, on input; not generally possible on output.) -* Write many versions of each brainfuck program, one for each programming environment. (Possible, but very unpleasant.) -* Forget portability and write programs for whatever implementation you are using. (A fairly common approach. May make it hard to share programs if your interpreter doesn't use 10 as newline.) -* Write brainfuck interpreters and compilers to translate newline to 10 on input, and 10 to newline on output, in environments where that is not already the case. (Easy and helpful, but often overlooked. Also, may break the few brainfuck programs that do binary i/o; so newline translation should ideally be able to be turned off with a switch.) -* Instead of having the user hit the "Enter" key, expect the user to do something else to give a 10 to the interpreter; e.g., the user can feed the input from a file which uses 10s to end the lines, rather than from the keyboard. Send the output to a file too. (Possible but clunky.) - -A few implementations allow the input to be "raw" and sometimes non-blocking. If the input is in "raw" mode it is not line buffered and key presses are passed to the program immediately. Non-blocking means that if there isn't a character available either immediately or after a short delay (for example 1/10 of a second) the input command will return an EOF indication. - -====EOF==== -EOF is a controversial issue. Many implementations return 0, some return -1, and several notable brainfuck programmers suggest that on EOF the memory cell should be left as-is, without modification. In the original distribution the compiler left the cell unchanged, while the interpreter used the EOF from C which, strictly speaking, could be any negative integer, but which usually is -1 (which, in the case of byte-sized cells, ends up as 255). - -==Related languages== - -See also [[Brainfuck extensions]]. - -In publishing the formal programming language [[P%27%27]] in 1964, Corrado Böhm used six symbols ''precisely'' equivalent to the brainfuck commands <code>+</code>, <code>-</code>, <code>&lt;</code>, <code>&gt;</code>, <code>[</code>, and <code>]</code>, and provided an explicit program for each of the basic functions that together serve to compute any partial recursive function. (So in a very real sense, the first "brainfuck" programs appear in Bohm's 1964 paper.) - -Many people at various times have tried to extend brainfuck to make it easier to program in, but such efforts have been compared to trying to make a luxury car by gluing parts onto a skateboard. <!-- maybe it was dbc who said this initially. --> <!-- I said something similar to that, only "bolting" not "gluing", and "pickup truck" not "luxury car". -DBC. --> Other people have been interested in variations of the language for theoretical purposes, pedagogical applications, etc. The sheer proliferation of languages equivalent to and derived from brainfuck led Chris Pressey to dub it "the [[wikipedia:twelve-bar blues|twelve-bar blues]] of esolang". Some of the more interesting variants: - -* [[pbrain]] is a brainfuck extension that supports procedures. -* [[cbrain]] is a derivative of pbrain as implemented in pbrain.c, adding integers and operators. -* [[RUM]] stands for "bRainfUck iMproved." and adds procedures, strings and repetition. -* [[Toadskin]] is a brainfuck variant that supports procedures, but uses a stack instead of an array. -* [[Brainfork]] adds a Y command to fork the current thread. -* [[Fm]] edits a string on alphabet {0,1,...,m-1} (m >= 2). -* [[FRAK]] assembles instructions to brainfuck code. -* [[FukYorBrane]] and [[BF Joust]] pit two Brainfuck-like programs against each other, as in Core War (see [[Redcode]]). -* [[Smallfuck]] operates only on bits and has no input- or output-commands. -* [[Bitter]] one-bit memory cells, four commands, equivalent to [[Smallfuck]] under certain circumstances -* [[Spoon]] uses a Huffman coded set of instructions corresponding to Brainfuck's commands. -* [[BrainDuino]] BF port on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arduino Arduino] HW platform (based on Atmel's ATMega). Extended by two special I/O operations and special overflow protection. -* [[Puzzlang]] turns every program into an exercise in patience and logic puzzle skills. The lone X operator becomes any of brainfuck's instructions, depending on the surrounding characters. -* [[Alarm Clock Radio]] throws away the instructions to decrement the memory pointer or memory value. -* [[Portal]] and [[Portal 2]] allows code-level pointer manipulation and theoretically implements the Wang-B Machine. -* [[tbf]] is a language that can be compiled to Brainfuck. It includes variables, strings, macros and improved loops. -* [[Grin]] adds more efficient arithmetic functions to Brainfuck. -* [[tinyBF]] and its variant [[RISBF]] are brainfuck equivalents with only 4 opcodes. -* [[Grawlix]] adds stack operations, decimal I/O, another loop structure, functions and multiply/divide by two. -* [[brainfuckconsole74]] extends brainfuck to a fantasy console like pico8. it renders first 256 cells as 16x16 pixels, reads keyboard&mouse-input and plays sound. -* [[Motherf]] adds a variety of useful commands and principles like macros, stack, functions, convenient I/O, booleans and simulation of other types. -* [[BFFuck]] and [[Headache]] are high-level languages that compile to brainfuck. -* [[brainbits]] is a brainfuck derivative that uses bit cells. - -Some other funny variants: - -* [[Ook!]] works exactly like brainfuck, except the syntax is in Orangutan. -* [[Blub]] is the same for fish. -* [[Brainloller]] has the same commands as brainfuck, except they're read from a png image. -* [[COW]] is the bovine version of "Ook!", except cows are slow to react so the loops are different. -* [[Microwave]] is inspired by COW and Ook!, except it uses only microwave sounds. -* [[Pi]] obfuscates Brainfuck instructions in random errors in pi digits. - -Some languages inspired by brainfuck, but with more major differences: - -* [[Aura]] requires data to be stored in the code space. -* [[PATH]] and [[SNUSP]] attempt to combine brainfuck with [[Befunge]]. -* [[Wierd]] arose out of an earlier attempt to combine brainfuck with Befunge. - -==See also== -* [[Brainfuck implementations]] -* [[Brainfuck algorithms]] -* [[Brainfuck constants]] -* [[Brainfuck code generation]] -* [[asm2bf]] - the only true brainfuck assembler. -* [[BFBASIC]], a Basic to brainfuck compiler -* [[FBP]], a high level language to brainfuck compiler -* [[Binary lambda calculus]], featuring an 829 bit (under 104 bytes) Brainfuck interpreter -* [[Brainfuck bitwidth conversions]] -* [[BF instruction minimalization]] -* [[Trivial brainfuck substitution]] and the [https://esolangs.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Trivial_brainfuck_substitution list of them]. -* [[BFO]], the first known brainfuck to brainfuck optimizer and compressor -* [[:Category:Brainfuck]], a collection of brainfuck related articles on this wiki -* [[Brainfuck minus -]], showing that ordinary brainfuck without the '-' instruction and cell range of 0-1 (without cell-wrapping!) is still Turing-complete -* [[:Category:Brainfuck derivatives]], languages based on brainfuck -* [[Shorten your Brainfuck code]] -* [[BF busy beaver]] -* [[EsoInterpreters]], featuring several brainfuck interpreters written in other esoteric languages -* (is this project alive?)
