PyMite is a flyweight Python interpreter written from scratch to execute on 8-bit and larger microcontrollers with resources as limited as 64 KB of program memory (flash) and 4 KB of RAM. PyMite supports a subset of the Python 2.5 syntax and can execute a subset of the Python 2.5 bytecodes. PyMite can also be compiled, tested and executed on a desktop computer. Here are the important new features in this release: - Interactive PyMite (ipm) works on AVR over serial port - Added support for the keyword lambda - Added support for list comprehensions - Fixed sys.runInThread() - Implemented builtin function dir() - Added support for string and tuple replication - Added support for funcs with default args - Added support for the keyword del - Created configurable Float datatype - Added support for Boolean type and True/False constants - Created dict, list and string modules that operate on their respective built-in types - Added support to allow heap larger than 64 KB !!Dean
