Backend compiler for high-level typed code with first-class support for multi-dimensional arrays, list tuples and dicts. High-level operations are optimized and must be lowered to a runtime implementation. Provided runtime implementations are in place for memory management and garbage collection, exceptions and threads.
Pykit tries to address an ever-growing number of compilers in the Python community, with a focus on array-oriented numerical code.
pykit:
* lowers and optimizes intermediate code
* produces IR that can be mapped to any desired runtime
* tries to be independent from platform or high-level language
* can generate LLVM or C89 out of the box
pykit is inspired by VMKit and LLVM.
