Brainf*ck Source Code File
| Developer | Urban Müller |

A B file may also be a source code file written in the Brainf*ck programming language. It contains a program that is meant to be compiled using a Brainf*ck compiler. B files contain only the characters < , > , + , - , . , , , [ , and ] , as well as development comments.
More Information
In 1992, Urban Müller created the Brainf*ck programming language. When creating Brainf*ck, Müller's goal was to create a language that could be compiled using the smallest-possible compiler. As such, the language includes only eight commands, each of which is implemented using a single character. These characters include:
While the Brainf*ck language is quite impractical, some other developers have latched onto the esoteric language and its structure. When these developers create Brainf*ck programs, they typically save them in B files. An example Brainf*ck program, saved within a B file, might look like this:
++++++++[>++++[>++>+++>+++>+<<<<-]>+>+>→>+[<]<-]>>.>---.+++++++..+++.>>.<-.<.+++.------.--------.>>+.>++.
NOTE: Brainf*ck source code is also saved using the .BF extension.
How to open a B file
Because B files are plain text files, you can open and examine them using any text editor, such as Microsoft Notepad (Windows), Apple TextEdit (Mac), or Github Atom (cross-platform). If you want to run the Brainf*ck program a B file contains, you can do so using a Brainf*ck development environment or interpreter, such as Brainf*ck Interpreter (Web, Android).
