Tetris

This project build a complete Tetris Game language. Our language is based on the syntax of C-type programs, i.e., C, C++, Java. For our compiler, we use "lex" lexical analyzer and "yacc" parser tools for Python from the PLY library.

Some of the offered Tetris primitives in our language are:

• Game Levels
• A variable sized board / playing grid
• Tetrominoes (user-defined pieces / blocks for tetris)
• Color of tetrominoes
• Speed and sequence of tetrominoes
• Programmable randomization
• and many more...

To get a detailed idea of our Tetris language, please refer to Stage1 and Stage2 report included in the Report folder of the repository.

The compiler was developed in two stages. Listed below are some filenames and the component / functionality they handle in the compiler, grouped by the stages in which they were developed. You can consider the files in Stage 2 group to be enhanced / improved versions of our previous code:

1. PDF Report - A detailed description of the language and implementation of the compiler.
2. game.ttr, a sample game in our language. This depicts the functionalities, syntax, etc.
3. tetris_lexer.py - Implementation Type-1. Here, we parse arrays and matrices and return them (instead of returning induvidual character tokens)
4. tetris_lexer_notParsingArrays - Implementation Type-2. Here, we return induvidual character tokens for Matrices and Arrays.
5. tetris_compiler.py - The entire compiler bundled as one with the lexer and parser.
6. Level.py - Defines the logic of levels in our game.
7. game_config.py - Declares the configurations for the game.
8. game.py - The Tetris Game. We run our compiler with the game which parses the user's declared configurations and converts them to moving pieces in the game.
9. game.ttr - A sample
10. game_final.ttr

To test, open a terminal (or conda prompt): python tetris_lexer.py

It will wait for filename input, provide - game.ttr
