Ok, will look it up later. > >> So the position is that GCC is allowed to use extensions >> because it's the only C implementation shown and PyPy is not, >> because all Python programs should run on each runtime, is that >> correct? > > I don't see a way to compare CPython and PyPy unless the comparison programs > do at least run on both CPython and PyPy (and x86 and x64). > Well I can always write a program that runs on both (and uses more efficient data structure for pypy for example). The question is a bit academic, because I don't have any particular implementation now in mind. But would be cool to be able to do that. _______________________________________________ pypy-dev@codespeak.net http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
