PYTHON for programming microcontroller

Can we program micro-controllers and micro-controllers' applications with PYTHON? I am getting very interesting to program with python, if u guys have any information just drop it by! :grin:

Here is some...............

ProjectProto: Python for PIC MCUs

PyMite - PythonInfo Wiki

https://sourceforge.net/projects/pyastra/

is there any links for 8051 python compilers ?

what is the advantage of using python over C? or C++ or JAVA?

I've been wanting to do something similar for a long time I couldn't find a decent solution so I came up with something myself: www.pymcu.com
my solution was to make something that would allow for rapid prototyping of new circuits and components so it doesn't run python on the microcontroller itself, you run python on your computer and use the pymcu python module on the computer to control the microcontroller. I put together some various examples and tutorials if you check out the page to get an idea of what you can do with it.

i want to learn about phython basic where can i ?

Nothing to worry about now , It is our time , just visit the site http://www.pymcu.com/

simple than Arduino ,
example :::::
Blink a LED - The electronics version of "Hello World"

import pymcu # Import the pymcu module

mb = pymcu.mcuModule() # Initialize mb (My Board) with mcuModule Class Object - Find first available pymcu hardware module.

for x in range(1,25): # Create a for next loop with 25 iterations
mb.pinHigh(1) # Set D1 pin High (LED On)
mb.pausems(500) # Sleep for half a second
mb.pinLow(1) # Set D1 pin Low (LED Off)
mb.pausems(500) # Sleep for half a second


ARDUINO- Example


/*
Blink
Turns on an LED on for one second, then off for one second, repeatedly.

This example code is in the public domain.
*/

// Pin 13 has an LED connected on most Arduino boards.
// give it a name:
int led = 13;

// the setup routine runs once when you press reset:
void setup() {
// initialize the digital pin as an output.
pinMode(led, OUTPUT);
}

// the loop routine runs over and over again forever:
void loop() {
digitalWrite(led, HIGH); // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)
delay(1000); // wait for a second
digitalWrite(led, LOW); // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW
delay(1000); // wait for a second
}

as we are on the topic of python, I just want to know some more info on python.

These questions are related to Python language on a linux PC.

1. Is python a interpreter based language ?.
2. Can python scripts be turned into executables or binaries for execution on linux ? or will the program be executed as a script.

I would like to develop a python program for a linux system, to release this program for commercial use, can the program be turned into an executable, or do I have to give out the script ? The problem is that I do not want my users to see the script...

thanks
a

You are unwittingly trying to make life difficult for yourself I think.
Python is a scripted OOP language written (mostly) in C.
When people say "compiled" python they mean all sorts of things that technically are not compilation at all.
IMHO compilation should always mean down to machine code. Everything else is just interpreting IMO.
(Bytecode is often used but once again thats generally just an interpretive code I would argue.)
But thats just me - others may argue.
It doesnt really make sense to use python on a PIC at all - anymore than using C++ or Java/javascript.
For one thing - the components that constitute a python application just wont fit. Not enough memory
to do oop or use all those libraries. Not to mention stack space.
I expect a subset of python could be used but you would be better off writing a brand new language because
you couldnt call it "python" anymore.
On the other hand if you just want a high level language that's easier to use than C
then PASCAL could do it. Or even Basic is available. You might want to look into using
FORTH if you just want something esoteric (and clever).
Personally I don't see any reason to use anything but C but once again - just my preference
based on what I find most efficient.

but not on a microcontroler... and for anything else a RAD is faster.

I said Software development 2 faster when you use Python language / than C or C++ /

If a RAD is faster why would you ever use python if speed is a concern?

Do you understand meaning of RAD?
please check wiki .... :lol:
