Use Debug flags
You might not know it because we haven't written it anywhere but Brain-Flak has debug flags and they are really useful. They can be placed anywhere in the code and will run when the command line flag -d is present. Here is a quick rundown of the debug flags.
Most flags come in...
It's trying to parse it as a debug flag but failing. It probably shouldn't be doing that
@MartinEnder I don't know if you remember but a while ago you asked about proving the optimality of the squaring snippet, well 1000000000 and I have finally proven it! We are not quite ready to publish our code but I thought I would tell you we have what we believe to be a proof that no program shorter than 18 bytes can square a number, so you can rest easy. We will keep you posted as we polish up our proof any verify all of our work. (unless you are no longer interested)
You must write a program or function that takes a string of brackets and outputs whether or not that string is fully matched. Your program should print a truthy or falsy value, and IO can be in any reasonable format.

For the purpose of this challenge, a "bracket" is any...
I think that, to test if a number x is prime, you test if any integer in [2..√x] divides it. If not, the number is prime. Of course, you can just use x instead of √x, because computing √ in Brain-Flak is prettu much another thing.
And, Brain-Flak isn't to be used in production anyways :)
@DJMcMayhem I wrote a pretty simple version without using <> or [] and then I substituted < for ( and > for )[{}].
The original version simple makes a stack of the remainders for n-1 through 0, removes the top two (always zero) and uses and on the stack until there is only one element
I avoids using <> by employing Riley's switch (({}({}))[({}[{}])]).
Mini-Flak, 202 bytes
Mini-Flak is a turing complete subset of the Brain-Flak language. (It is currently the smallest know turing complete subset of Brain-Flak) It works exactly like Brain-Flak except the <> and [] nilads and the <...> monad are forbidden.
(({})){(({}[()])(((({}({}))[({}[{}])](...
I think we need proper english names for all of the operations. Whenever I actually need to say <> or {...} outloud I have no idea what to actually say
@WheatWizard The first names that come to my mind are "One", "Pop", "Height", "Switch", "Push", "Loop", "Negate", and "Zero Out". I don't really like loop and zero out though.
