Brainf*ck Interpreter in Go. Based on the article A Virtual Brainfuck Machine in Go from Thorsten Ball.
Times to calculate the mandelbrot sample on a MacBook Pro with Go 1.12.1:
| type | time |
|---|---|
| bf-interpreter | 52.16s |
| bf-virtualmachine | 10.41s |
| bf-compiler | 2.94s |
The compiler variant (not in the article) generates Go code from the mandelbrot sample. This could be compiled as executable:
bf-compiler mandelbrot.bf > mandelbrot.go && go build mandelbrot.go
time ./mandelbrot
