hack-assembler

A Hack assembler in OCaml. A program that translates assembly code for the Hack computer into its binary representation.

This is project 6 of the Nand to Tetris course.

To run the program, run the following

dune exec -- ./assembler.exe <filename>.asm

where <filename>.asm is the assembly file you wish to translate. The file <filename>.hack should be created.

To run the tests, run

dune runtest

Parsing/Lexing

The parsing library menhir, and the lexing library ocamllex, are used to extract the A-instructions, C-instructions, and Labels. It's probably overkill, but it was quite simple to setup after following chapter 10 of this book about functional programming in OCaml.

Dependencies

opam install base core menhir stdio
