Does what it says, inteprets brainfuck using Python. This is unverified information (kinda), but afaik this is the fastest Python Interpreter for Brainfuck that exists on GitHub. If you have an interpreter that you think is faster, open an issue and I'll look into it. Use 23.12 minutes on the mandlebrot.bf
as a baseline to see which is faster.
Be sure to put put the brainfuck files in the Brainfucks
folder
Using it is rather easy. All you really need is to have Python installed. Afterwards, there are arguments that can be passed when running the file.
Running the python file with --limit
will include a 60s time limit.
Occasional updates to this code will come. Instead of downloading, it would be smarter to just pull this every now and then as to not miss any updates. You can run a few of the example files, such as the HelloWorld.bf.
Updates coming to this interpreter are made to improve interpreter speed. I am currently trying to achieve maximum speed as to make sure that the mandlebrot.bf will run within the 60s time limit.
Preferably, the entire mandlebrot set would be printed to the console before the 60s are finished. Below are the current outputs.\
Current output (as of Python 3.11.0):
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBBBBBBCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCDDDDDDDDDEGFFEEEEDDDDDDCCCCCCCCCBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB

This may not seem like much compared to the expected output of the full mandlebrot set, however it is a large improvement from the short AAAAA
that was outputed by the original version.
As comparison, the full mandlebrot set (without timelimit) can be printed to the console in a little over 23 minutes. This is incredibly slow, so I'm looking to speed it up.
