# What is this?
A DCPU_16 implementation in Python. See [the spec](http://0x10c.com/doc/dcpu-16.txt)
# But what's the goal of this? There's another one already!
Well, what's wrong with taking another stab at it? Besides, I personnally felt it was too C-ish, and not pythonic enough (whatever that means). I wanted to revive whatever low-level (admittedly limited) ASM knowledge I had (from 6800/68000) and sharpen my Python-fu. The spirit of the thing is to be educative for everyone (including me).
# How do I use this?
It's meant to be used interactively via the Python REPL as well as programmatically. I might implement a specific ASM REPL at some point.
example:
from dcpu_16 import CPU
c = CPU(debug=True)
c.load_m() # loads demo program
c.step() # step by one instruction
c.pc = 0xA # move to 'loopy thing'
c.step()
c.reset() # reset cpu
c.clear() # clear memory
