CPU AS A PROGRAM

Project description

⚙️ CAAP (CPU As A Program)

PyPI Downloads

🧠 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.
