C-- itself seems pretty advanced and i'd use it even though it's not being maintained anymore except that that probably implies it doesn't have support for the never SIMD instruction sets, which I need. what i'm looking at so far is HLA. it has coroutines(!) and a math library but don't know about what cpus and instruction sets it supports yet. > > -- > Basile STARYNKEVITCH http://starynkevitch.net/Basile/ > email: basile<at>starynkevitch<dot>net mobile: +33 6 8501 2359 > 8, rue de la Faiencerie, 92340 Bourg La Reine, France > *** opinions {are only mines, sont seulement les miennes} *** >
