What you should learn from this project:
- What do LIFO and FIFO mean
- What is a stack, and when to use it
- What is a queue, and when to use it
- What are the common implementations of stacks and queues
- What are the most common use cases of stacks and queues
- What is the proper way to use global variables
- How to work with git submodules
Monty 0.98 is a scripting language that is first compiled into Monty byte codes (Just like Python). It relies on a unique stack, with specific instructions to manipulate it. The goal of this project is to create an interpreter for Monty ByteCodes files.
Files containing Monty byte codes usually have the .m extension. Most of the industry uses this standard but it is not required by the specification of the language. There is not more than one instruction per line. There can be any number of spaces before or after the opcode and its argument:
user@ubuntu:~/0x19-stacks_queues_lifo_fifo$ cat -e bytecodes/000.m
push 0$
push 1$
push 2$
push 3$
pall $
push 4$
push 5 $
push 6 $
pall$
user@ubuntu:~/0x19-stacks_queues_lifo_fifo$Monty byte code files can contain blank lines (empty or made of spaces only, and any additional text after the opcode or its required argument is not taken into account:
user@ubuntu:~/0x19-stacks_queues_lifo_fifo$ cat -e bytecodes/001.m
push 0 Push 0 onto the stack$
push 1 Push 1 onto the stack$
$
push 2$
push 3$
pall $
$
$
$
push 4$
$
push 5 $
push 6 $
$
pall This is the end of our program. Monty is awesome!$
user@ubuntu:~/0x19-stacks_queues_lifo_fifo$Usage: monty file where file is the path to the file containing Monty byte code If the user does not give any file or more than one argument to your program, print the error message USAGE: monty file, followed by a new line, and exit with the status EXIT_FAILURE If, for any reason, it’s not possible to open the file, print the error message Error: Can't open file , followed by a new line, and exit with the status EXIT_FAILURE where is the name of the file If the file contains an invalid instruction, print the error message L<line_number>: unknown instruction , followed by a new line, and exit with the status EXIT_FAILURE where is the line number where the instruction appears. Line numbers always start at 1 The monty program runs the bytecodes line by line and stop if either: it executed properly every line of the file it finds an error in the file an error occured If you can’t malloc anymore, print the error message Error: malloc failed, followed by a new line, and exit with status EXIT_FAILURE. You have to use malloc and free and are not allowed to use any other function from man malloc (realloc, calloc, …)

SPECIAL THANKS To all our peers, mentors, and staff from Holberton School in San Francisco, New Heaven and Bogota. Every day is a journey for new discoveries, a route that you walk alone but do not feel that way, because without your time, help and dedication to try to explain those issues that we do not understand, none of this would have been possible.
