Hello, unfortunately, crazy proprietary microcontrollers do tend to have sub-standard compiler support ;-) Anyway, if one worries about the performance cost of constants inlined at compile time versus constants inlined by the JIT, then using a language as high-level as Racket may be a mistake. Personally, I think it is a bigger mistake not to use a high-level language and to worry about those things in the first place, especially before one is profiling a complete program for performance -- but that may be biased from a person who usually doesn't have to solve real-time critical performance problems ;-) Ciao, Thomas -- When C++ is your hammer, every problem looks like your thumb. ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
