My point was that on the calculator itself one can use other languages as well (well maybe not really C, as it has to get compiled first). This independently if at the end they get converted in sysrpl/assembly. This is simply incorrect - there is absolutely no reason that a cross compiler should produce less efficient code than a compiler for the same language running on the target machine. In fact, it is typically the other way round, as the cross compiler host is normally more powerful, and can spend more resources (memory, cpu cycles, ...) on optimizing the compiled code. Note that a cross compiler normally outputs optimized machine code for the target machine; the exception is typically when the target machine is a poor match for the source language (example: 8-bit processors, when most high-level languages assume at least 16-bit integers). |
