🧭 C-NORTH 🧭

📚 North (C version) is a very basic, stack based programming language written in c. Inspired by forth, porth, asm and SQL!

This was my first somewhat bigger project in c. I have to learn a lot more, but nonetheless north was a good experience to make (sometimes) and i will continue working on the c version of it.

Version: BETA0.2

📌 I'm working on north+, therefore this project currently on hiatus!

• Turing complete
• Optimalized code
• Error Handling
• Working strings 🔴 strings currently can't have spaces because of the primitive lexer.

Features & Syntax

• Entry point, and basic operations

This code snippet pushes 10 int-s to the stack, adding them togheter and showing poping the top element.

label main:
   PUSH 10, PUSH 20, ADD, TOP
   EXIT
end

label main:
   PUSH 10, PUSH 20, SUB, TOP
   PUSH 10, PUSH 20, MUL, TOP
   PUSH 10, PUSH 20, DIV, TOP
   EXIT
end

• Labels

Labels are like goto statements, you can just run them. ~LB just means linebreak.

label label_name:
   PRINT 'your-label' LB
   EXIT
end

label main:
   RUN label_name
end

• Input & If

INPUT just gets an 'int' input from the user. IF runs the label if the top element is 0. This i enough for turing completenes!

label NULL:
   PRINT 'THIS-IS-NULL' LB
   EXIT
end

label main:
   INPUT # if the input is 0, the program jumps to the 'NULL' label and exits
   IF NULL
   PRINT 'NOT-NULL' LB # if not 0, the program prints this and exits
   EXIT
end
