This is just like the very common situation here and on sci.crypt, where a person has a programming or algorithm question and gets asked what the application is, and when they answer, it turns out that what they need is not anything like what they thought they needed. > on one device, the processor in an 8-bit arm and the X-compiler is made by > epson > > on the other device, the processor is unknown to me and the environment is a > subset of java made for smartcards called javacard. ???? You mean ARM?? There is no such thing as an 8-bit ARM; they are 32-bit cpu's that (in some models) support a 16-bit instruction format. Javacard is an interpreter that runs in many 8-bit processors. The interpreter supports 32-bit arithmetic. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
