qlcompiler 0.1.0

A short description for your project.

The quick lambda compiler takes quick lambda objects from sidekick and compiles them either to Python, C or Javascript code. The goal is to improve interoperability between Python and other languages that can be useful in some common Python applications.

C compiler

The main goal of the C compiler is to help with scientific Python where simple and small functions can be defined both in Python and C. The goal is to prototype a function in a scientific computation in Python and then later convert it to C and have huge speed gains with very little effort.

The main use case is interoperability with Numpy, but it can be used as a simple code generator for other C applications.

>>> from sidekick import _
>>> from qlcompiler import c_compiler
>>> print(c_compiler.compile(_ + 2))
void function(double _) {
    return _ + 2;
}

Javascript compiler

Similarly to C compiler, the Javascript compiler converts quick lambdas to Javascript code. It may be useful in web application in order to share code between the client and the server.

>>> from qlcompiler import js_compiler
>>> print(js_compiler.compile(_ + 2))
function(_) {
    return _ + 2;
}
