Description
BrainHack is an interpreter app for B*******k.
The B*******k programming language is an esoteric programming language noted for its extreme minimalism.
It is a Turing tarpit, designed to challenge and amuse programmers, and was not made to be suitable for practical use.
It was created in 1993 by Urban Muller.
Commands:
> increment the data pointer (to point to the next cell to the right).
< decrement the data pointer (to point to the next cell to the left).
+ increment (increase by one) the byte at the data pointer.
- decrement (decrease by one) the byte at the data pointer.
. output a character, the ASCII value of which being the byte at the data pointer.
, accept one byte of input, storing its value in the byte at the data pointer.
[ if the byte at the data pointer is zero, then instead of moving the instruction pointer forward to the next command, jump it forward to the command after the matching ] command.
] if the byte at the data pointer is nonzero, then instead of moving the instruction pointer forward to the next command, jump it back to the command after the matching [ command.

Ratings and Reviews
Amazing app
This application is great for the price. There haven't been any problems so far that I can see. I've made a Hello World and a number multiplier. 2 features I would recommend is the option to enter numbers directly instead of their Ascii counterparts, and a better ability to handle multiple character input. I don't know the specification, but I think it should enter each character separately until it reaches the end of the user's input then place a 0 in the final cell. Great other than that though!
Good, But Change One Thing
plz make an indicator to show which box you are currently in when running the program. Also, when I tried to send feedback the app crashes. One more feature would be a “undo” button, like ctrl+z
Fantastic app!
Being able to watch the program be interpreted in real time is very well done. The only feature I'd ask for is an identifier of where the pointer is. Maybe, the current byte is surrounded by a square to highlight it? Just a suggestion.
The file system is exactly what I'm looking for: very simple and effective. The helper keyboard is very effective, it makes the a programming a lot easier. The ASCII table could be easier to access, though. I'd say in general:
++++++++++[>+++++++>+++++++++++>++++++++++>+++<<<<-]>+.>++++.>+.----.<++.>>++.<.<----..>>+.
Thanks for developing this! :)
