pyvmtranslator

This repo contains my implementation of the first project from Nand2Tetris (part 2), which converts VM code into Hack assembly code.

Example usage

To run the code:

python3 ./vmtranslator/vmtranslator.py ./MemoryAccess/BasicTest/BasicTest.vm

Implementation notes (remove when completed)

Big Picture

Test Steps:

1. Run the VM programme in the VM emulator to understand what it is doing
2. Use your translator to generate the assembly code • it can be helpful to output comments containing the VM code so it's easier to debug later
3. Load ....tst file into the CPU emulator and inspect results (cant use .asm file as there are some initialization steps we need but haven't done in this project)
