@Dennis Could you pull V? (No rush though)

@DJMcMayhem Done.

Tyvm

@Dennis I think it's ready: github.com/m-ender/alice. Could you add it to TIO? :) Same usage as for my other interpreters, but there are no debug flags. Source code should be UTF-8. The language can handle arbitrary input and output streams, but will generally use UTF-8 for both (not sure what your setup for those streams looks like)

Due to the complexity of the language, I'm afraid I'll have to pester you with updates a few times, because I'm sure I will have to fix a bunch of bugs...

oh and if you need test programs, these two should both print HW:

"!dlroW ,olleH"d&O@

/OH!lloo /
@""edlr,W\

@MartinEnder That looks super interesting

@DJMcMayhem Thank you. :)

Can I ask a question to make sure I understand something real quick?

(Keep in mind, I don't actually know what the code should look like)

  --> /

        \
         >

If the IP is going in the direction of the first arrow, after the mirror, it will go the (oridnal) direction of the second arrow?

yes

OK, then is this also accurate?

  --> /
       /
       |
       |
       V

no

  --> /
       / -->

Huh

Where would this go? (if it's even valid)

it's basically the same situation as before, in reverse, rotated by 180 degrees...

  --> /
       \

I should probably add diagrams for all 8 cases after all...

that one would end up going north

How would you make it travel south?

you can't go from southeast straight to south. the obtuse angle reflections are all connected with a horizontal movement, whereas the acute angle reflections are all connected with a vertical movement. I'll definitely add those other diagrams...

I've added some example programs to the repo

@MartinEnder tio.run/nexus/alice#@6/v76GYk5Ofr6DP5aCklJqSU6QTHvP/PwA

nice, thank you :)

@DJMcMayhem I've updated the readme with all 16 diagrams

@Downgoat Are you aware that your TIO client is broken and probaly has been for a while?

@Dennis bork when executing rm -rf ~

tio.run/nexus/bash#@1@Uq6BblKZQ9/8/AA

@ГригорийПерельман Solution: don't do that.

But I wanted to see what happens and I don't want to remove my own home directory ;(

That's because you can't remove ~ itself. You'd need write permission to /home for that.
