If you write code as prose there is no restriction at play.
The restriction applies only to executable instructions, which include
all scripting languages.
At this time Python, Perl, Squeak, even languages essential for research
like R and MatLab, are not allowed in iPhone OS.
According to Apple, researchers must use an Android-powered device to do
their work. ;)
How does this apply to macros and formulas in Apple's own Numbers app?
At the moment they may well constitute "executable code", and are
certainly interpreted. I'll wager the license changes again as soon as
someone points this out to them.
What time is it now, and what will the iPhone developer license look
like by 2:12PM?
