Brainrot Programming Language

Brainrot is a meme-inspired programming language that translates common programming keywords into internet slang and meme references. It's built using Flex (lexical analyzer) and Bison (parser generator), making it a fun way to learn about language processing and compiler design.

🤔 What is Brainrot?

Brainrot is a C-like programming language where traditional keywords are replaced with popular internet slang. For example:

• void → skibidi
• int → rizz
• for → flex
• return → bussin

📋 Requirements

To build and run the Brainrot compiler, you'll need:

• GCC (GNU Compiler Collection)
• Flex (Fast Lexical Analyzer)
• Bison (Parser Generator)

Installation on Different Platforms

Ubuntu/Debian

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gcc flex bison

Arch Linux

sudo pacman -S gcc flex bison

macOS (using Homebrew)

brew install gcc flex bison

🚀 Building the Compiler

1. Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/araujo88/brainrot.git
cd brainrot

2. Generate the parser and lexer:

bison -d -Wcounterexamples lang.y -o lang.tab.c
flex -o lang.lex.c lang.l

3. Compile the compiler:

make

💻 Usage

1. Create a Brainrot source file (e.g., hello.brainrot):

skibidi main {
    yapping("Hello, World!");
    bussin 0;
}

2. Run your Brainrot program:

./brainrot < hello.brainrot
