If speed is an issue, a purely interpreted language
Forth is not an interpreted langage. only uses a small number of assembly langage function and recursive calls. But any new function is added to the underlying system and available instantly, and all this is done function by function. very simple for structured programming. of course the logic is fairly different from C, an experienced C programmer will see Forth as the hell :-) but embedded system programmers uses it, because it's extremely compact. and including assembly is very simple, so why I mentioned it here jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://gourmandises.orangeblog.fr/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
