Title: PicoC
Post by: Vortex on October 25, 2023, 02:07:46 PM

The PicoC interpreter :

Quote

PicoC is a very small C interpreter for scripting. It was originally written as a script language for a UAV on-board flight system. It's also very suitable for other robotic, embedded and non-embedded applications.

The core C source code is around 3500 lines of code. It's not intended to be a complete implementation of ISO C but it has all the essentials. When compiled it only takes a few k of code space and is also very sparing of data space. This means it can work well in small embedded devices. It's also a fun example of how to create a very small language implementation while still keeping the code readable.

It's been tested on x86-32, x86-64, powerpc, arm, ultrasparc, HP-PA and blackfin processors and is easy to port to new targets.

Hi John,

As we know, the language C is very versatile. PicoC is the product of the power of C.

If their search bubble is any indication, that site desperately needs a moderator.  Too bad ...
