@DJMcMayhem If we are making an interpreter which one do we want to fork?
DJMcMayhem
IDK. Probably ruby because it's the most
official
What other ones are options?
Heeby Jeeby Man
@DJMcMayhem Brain-Flog and BrainHack, I would prefer not to use the ruby because it is quite bloated and we don't really need all of the code.
Brain-Flog is a super simple interpreter
DJMcMayhem
(Prolog and Haskell?)
Heeby Jeeby Man
yes
DJMcMayhem
Feel free to do whichever one you want. But if it's not in Ruby, Python, or C(++), then I can't help at all

If it's in Rust, C(++) or Javascript i might help. I'm bored and none of the code golf challanges intrest me at the moment :p
Heeby Jeeby Man
Eh we can just write it from the ground up. It's not that hard, and I've built brain-flak interpreters a dozen times
I don't care which language amoung Ruby, Python, or C++, I know them all.
I don't know Rust, C or Javascript though
DJMcMayhem
I'd vote Python
Although I don't know how much I'll contribute anyway
Heeby Jeeby Man
That's fine. We probably don't need an army anyway
DJMcMayhem
Actually, I'd enjoy doing the first part of it, if that's OK
(Unless you really really wanted to write it)
Heeby Jeeby Man
Sure go ahead. I don't like programming that much.

Heeby Jeeby Man
What are we going to name it?
DJMcMayhem
I'm really not sure yet
I guess we'll figure it out later, I don't care too much
Heeby Jeeby Man
Well we do need to name the repository ..
DJMcMayhem
@HeebyJeebyMan Which reminds me, we have so many different variations on brain-flak. I think we should collect them (and links if possible) somewhere.
Heeby Jeeby Man
Yrah, an esolangs page would probably be a good place
DJMcMayhem
21:00
Or
here
Or even
brain-flak
Heeby Jeeby Man
That might be good too
DJMcMayhem
Which one?
Heeby Jeeby Man
the second
DJMcMayhem
If we compiled a list of relevant variations in here, I'd be happy to edit them into several different places
Heeby Jeeby Man
Ok I'll have to sift through my repos
DJMcMayhem
21:03
Let's see. Off the top of my head, we have:
- Pain-flak
- Brain-Flueue
- Lambdaflak
- Flakcats
- Brain-flak Classic
Oh yeah, rand-flak
I don't think I got very far with that one

Unbalanced?
It is not really a derivative more just enspired
DJMcMayhem
self-star...
@HeebyJeebyMan More like something for
here
Oh yeah, mini-flak and sad-flak
Sad-flak IMO is the most interesting of all of these
Heeby Jeeby Man
And I have to get around to publishing my proof that Microflak is TC
DJMcMayhem
Remind me what microflak is?
Heeby Jeeby Man
I still don't understand sad-flak
DJMcMayhem
21:07
I never used it a whole lot, but it's basically simplified brain-flak mixed with stackylogic IIRC. Most of the branching and stuff is done through line-numbers

Nope that's the beauty
