# VM Translator in Rust

This project is an implementation of the VM Translator from the 'Nand to

Tetris' course, written in Rust!

The architecture of the assembler follows a functional approach: mostly

functions doing the heavy work, not relying on objects, and trying to use

mostly immutable variables. However, a few mutable references are used when it

makes everything easier.

The entire implementation is done in just over 300 lines of code!

## Usage

```bash

cargo run -- path/to/filename.vm

```

If `filename.vm` is a valid program, a `filename.asm` file that can be

executed by the Hack computer will be generated!
