tone-deaf
tone-deaf is an esoteric programming language which manipulates a stack based on chords. This repository contains a reference interpreter for the language as well as the wiki describing each function.
tone-deaf can be installed through pip
:
pip install tone-deaf
Running from a file
Programs can be run from a file in one of two modes: normal or 'lyric' mode. Lyric mode allows you to leave comments on every other line, like so:
E E E
The above takes 3 integers.
A7 A7
This will calculate (a ** (b ** c)).
which the intepreter reads as:
E E E A7 A7
Normal mode assumes there are no comments. To load a file in normal mode, use the -f
option, i.e. tone-deaf -f program.deaf
. To load a file in lyric mode, use the -l
switch along with the -f
option, i.e. tone-deaf -l -f program.deaf
.
Using the REPL
If no file is provided via the switches above, you will be provided with a REPL. This will work the same was as the paring for normal files would, except the stack is persistent throughout the entire execution. Example:
td> E E E
1
2
3
[1 2 3]
td> Em7
[1 2 3 3]
td> E7#9
[3 3 2 1]
td> A7 A7 A7
[19683]
td> quit
...
The stack will be printed out after each line entered.
