CPU AS A PROGRAM
Project description
⚙️ CAAP (CPU As A Program)
🧠 A simple virtual CPU that executes custom assembly-like instructions inside Python.
CAAP is a lightweight interpreter that simulates a basic CPU.
It lets you run simple text-based instructions like SET and MOV to manipulate variables, just like a minimal processor.
🚀 Features
- 🧠 Simple CPU-like instruction system
- ⚡ Fast and lightweight (pure Python)
- 📦 No external dependencies
- 🧪 Easy to extend with new commands
- 🎮 Great for learning interpreters and CPU concepts
📥 Installation
pip install caap
🧑💻 Basic Usage
from caap import CPU
cpu = CPU()
def function(a,b):
cpu.varb[a] = b
def func(a,b):
cpu.varb[b] = cpu.varb[a]
cpu.scommand("SET",function)
cpu.scommand("MOV",func)
code = """
SET A, 10
SET B, 20
MOV C, A
"""
result = cpu.run(code)
print(cpu.varb)
📊 Output
{'A': 10, 'B': 20, 'C': 10}

⚙️ Supported Instructions
| Instruction | Description |
|---|---|
| SET A, value | Assign a value to a variable |
| MOV A, B | Copy value from variable B into A |
🧠 How It Works
CAAP reads each line of text, splits it into commands, and executes it using an internal memory system (like CPU registers).
Each variable acts like a register inside a virtual CPU.
🔥 More Examples
📌 Example 1: Simple Math Storage
SET X, 5
SET Y, 15
MOV Z, X
Output:
{'X': 5, 'Y': 15, 'Z': 5}
📌 Example 2: Overwriting Values
SET A, 100
SET B, 50
MOV A, B
Output:
{'A': 50, 'B': 50}
🎮 Projects You Can Build With CAAP
🧮 1. Mini Calculator Engine
Use CAAP to simulate calculations step by step.
🧠 2. Simple AI Decision System
Use variables like memory states for decisions.
🎮 3. Text-Based Game Engine
Build HP systems, inventory, and battle logic.
⚙️ 4. CPU Simulation Learning Tool
Teach how CPUs work (registers, memory, execution).
🧪 5. Custom Language Experiments
Use CAAP as base for your own scripting language.
