What is a .RBJ file?

The .RBJ file is a type of computer file that works with a program called XRK, which stands for Extra Redcode Kit. XRK is a special computer program used for a game that is a bit like a battle between computer programs. These computer programs are called "warriors," and they fight each other in a virtual space. The warriors are written in a simple computer language known as Redcode, which is similar to the basic instructions you might give to a computer.

When someone writes a warrior program in Redcode, they use XRK to turn that program into a form the computer can understand better, which is the .RBJ file. This file contains all the instructions the warrior needs to fight in the game, but in a form that's ready for the computer to use directly. It's like translating a book into a different language so more people can read it.

To see these warriors battle it out, you need to use the XRK program. This program takes the .RBJ files for different warriors and lets them compete against each other in a simulated environment. It's a way to see which warrior is the strongest or smartest based on how they were programmed.

The idea of this game comes from something called Core Wars, which was first introduced in 1984. Core Wars was a groundbreaking concept where programmers could create programs that tried to take over a computer's memory space while stopping other programs from doing the same. XRK builds on this idea by providing a complete set of tools for creating, compiling, and battling these warrior programs.

In summary, if you have a .RBJ file, you're looking at a warrior program for the XRK game, ready to battle it out in a virtual arena. To open and use this file, you would need the Extra Redcode Kit program, which lets you dive into the world of programming battles based on the classic game of Core Wars.
