Project description

Beatnik

This python package contains functions for stack-based esoteric programming language: Beatnik

Description

Beatink is a stack-based esoteric programming language created by Cliff L. Biffle. This package contains each ACTION functions by the rules of beatnik, and build a stack to calculate the resulted output from the given text.

 5: ----------K---------------

Action list

The following table describes the meaning of the ACTIONS (see above).

Score Pseudo-Code Description
<5 NOOP Does nothing. The Beatnik Interpreter may mock you for your poor scoring, at its discretion.
5 n push(n) Finds the score of the next word and push it onto the stack.
the actual word with 5 is then skipped.
6 pop(n) Pops the top number off the stack and discards it.
7 push(pop()+pop()) Adds the top two values on the stack together
8 push(input()) Input a character from the user and push its value on the stack. Waits for a keypress.
9 print(pop()) Pop a number off the stack and output the corresponding ASCII character to the screen.
10 push(pop()-pop()) Pop two numbers from the stack, subtract the first one popped from the second one popped, and push the result.
11 a = pop(); b = pop(); push(a); push(b) Swap the top two values on the stack.
12 a = pop(); push(a); push(a) Duplicate the top value and pushes the value on top of the stack.
13 n if(top()==0) jump(+n) Pop a number from the stack, and figure out the score of the next word.
If the number from the stack is zero, skip ahead by n words, where n is the score of the next word.
(The skipping is actually n+1 words, because the word scored to give us n is also skipped.)
14 n if(top()!=0) jump(+n) Same as above, except skip if the value on the stack isn't zero.
15 if(top()==0) jump(-n) Skip back n words, if the value on the stack is zero.
16 if(top()!=0) jump(-n) Skip back if it's not zero.
17 exit() Stop the program.
18-23 NOOP Does nothing. However, the score is high enough that the Beatnik Interpreter will not mock you, unless it's had a really bad day.
>23 Generates "Beatnik applause" for the programmer.

Installation

The Blend Modes package can be installed through pip:

pip install beatnik

Import

from beatnik import beatnik_simple
from beatnik import beatnik_stack

Use the example file beatnik_interact


Simple usage of this library

text = "this is a line of text"
beatnik.beatnik_simple(text,debug=True)

Step-by-step

preprocess text

text = "this is a line of text"
words = beatnik.preprocess(text)

scrabbling word

VALUE = []
  for i in word:
      value = beatnik.scrabble(i)
      VALUE.append(value)

words are list of words that before scrabble

running stack machine

beatnik.stack(words,VALUE,debug=False)
