iArduino: a C Interpreter for Arduino #C #Programming #Arduino
N. Mitsunaga posts about iArduino: a C Interpreter for Arduino. Rather than using compiled C/C++ as in the official Arduino IDE, iArduino is interpreted at runtime like Python/CircuitPython but in C.
The iArduino interprets a language which resembles to the Arduino language. It can
evaluate an expression reflectively,
do stepwise execution of a program,
run a program slowly,
stop and resume a program.
Summary of the iArduino language and the interpreter
Name of variables: a to z (16bits int aka. short)
Control statements: if, else, for, while, break, continue
Constans: LOW, HIGH, INPUT, OUTPUT, true, false
Operators: +, -, *, /, %, &, |, ^, &&, ||, <, <=, >, >=, ==, !=, >>, <<
Literals: decimal, hexadecimal, binary digit (16bits int only)
Functions: abs, analogRead, analogWrite, delay, digitalRead, digitalWrite, max, millis, min, noTone, rand, pinMode, servo?.attach, servo?.write, tone, print
Commands: animate, autorun, debug, edit, list, noauto, prog, run, save, step
There is also a Terminal mode which provides a rich data environment, great for learning.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
