Hello all!
I just read with great interest the blog post "Automatic SIMD
vectorization support in PyPy".
Please, I have a few questions:
- Does regular Python code benefit from the vectorization? I mean, the
article on one hand says "it is not specifically targeted for the
NumPy library" but on the other it says "Any interpreter (written in
RPython)".
- I would like to write a vector class as much suitable for PyPy as
possible, what approach should I take in order to implement it? For
example, what would suit PyPy JIT the best:
class Vector3d:
def __init__(a, x, y, z):
(a.x, a.y, a.z) = x, y, z
def __add__(a, b):
return Vector3d(a.x + b.x, a.y+b.y, a.z+b.z)
def add1(a, b):
(ax, ay, az) = a
(bx, by, bz) = b
return [ax + bx, ay + by, az + bz]
def add2(a, b):
(ax, ay, az) = a
(bx, by, bz) = b
return (ax + bx, ay + by, az + bz)
def add3((ax, ay, az), (bx, by, bz)):
return (ax + bx, ay + by, az + bz)
def add3:
???
- Is NumPyPy going to be included with regular PyPy download/install?
Thanks a lot in advance!
