A few days before I left India, I started writing a brainfuck interpreter in bAdkOde. I finished implemented all the instructions, excepting for looping. I actually finished the code (and fixed all bugs) while I was in the air, flying from Dubai to Los Angeles. Emirates Airlines has power-plugs for your laptop on the seat….

bAdkOde is Turing Complete
In my previous post, I suggested that bAdkOde might be Turing Complete by writing a quine. One of the ways to actually prove Turing Completeness is to try and write an interpreter for another Turing-Complete language in bAdkOde. Another approach involves providing a direct translation from another Turing-Complete language into bAdkOde. Here, I prove the…
A bAdkOde quine (which suggests that bAdkOde is Turing Complete)
On the bAdkOde project page, I mentioned that I didn’t know whether bAdkOde is Turing Complete (although I suspected it). I also mentioned that if I was able to write a quine in bAdkOde, then it would probably mean that it is Turing Complete. I was able to write one after going through this excellent…
