Groot is an esoteric programming language, which uses the language of an extraterrestrial plant from Planet X called Groot as its syntax.
There are eight commands like Brainfuck:
| phrase | meaning |
|---|---|
i am groot |
increment the byte at the data pointer. |
I am Groot |
decrement the byte at the data pointer. |
I AM GROOOT |
output the byte at the data pointer. |
I AM GROOT |
increment the data pointer. |
I am groot |
decrement the data pointer. |
I am grooot |
accept one byte of input. |
I'm Groot |
if the byte at the data pointer is zero, then instead of moving the instruction pointer forward to the next command, jump it forward to the command after the matching We are Groot command. |
We are Groot |
if the byte at the data pointer is nonzero, then instead of moving the instruction pointer forward to the next command, jump it back to the command after the matching I'm Groot command. |
To build, run:
$ cargo buildTo run:
$ cargo run helloworld.grootThe Rust version used to build this:
rustc 1.0.0-nightly (dfc5c0f1e 2015-02-18) (built 2015-02-19)
It will probably work with any nightly build.
