A pseudocode interpreter designed to be compatible with the Cambridge IGCSE and A levelpseudocode syntax

The REPL stands forReadExecutePrintLoop and is an interface where pseudocode statements can be entered. The statement is immediately executed after it is entered and the result or potential errors are printed to the console to make it easy for debugging.

> 5 + 2 * 311> LEFT("ABCD", 2)"AB"> x <- 1 / 0Runtime Error in file <stdin>:Division by 0Traceback:Program, line 1, column 9

Lanuch the program directly by double clicking theexecutable
OR
Run it in the terminal with no arguements

The REPL can be used to run files usingRUNFILE <file>.
For example, here is a simple hello world program stored in the filehello.pseudo

OUTPUT "Hello World!"

Run it withRUNFILE hello.pseudo
Example output:

> RUNFILE hello.pseudo==> Running file 'hello.pseudo'Hello World!==> Program exited successfully>

Tip:The program must be stored in thesame folder as the executableor the full path of the program has to be mentioned when usingRUNFILE

Navigate to the executable and run it providing the path of the program file as an arguement similar toRUNFILE

Windows:

PseudoEngine2.exe <filepath>

Linux/Unix:

./PseudoEngine2 <filepath>

Make sure you replacePseudoEngine2 with the actual name of the executable or rename the executable

Seeexamples

Make sure cmake and a c++ compiler is installed, then clone the repository and inside its folder run the following commands:

cmake -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Releasecmake --build build --config Release

The executable will be generated inside the build folder
