Announcing the pre release of CLyther
Hello, we would like to announce the pre-release of the open source project 'CLyther'
We are currently in the planning stages of the new open source project 'CLyther'. CLyther, is a Python tool similar to Cython. CLyther is a python language extension that makes writing OpenCL code as easy as Python itself. CLyther currently only supports a subset of the Python language definition but adds many new features to OpenCL. CLyther was inspired by PyCUDA and PyCUDA's views on Metaprogramming.
CLyther exposes both the OpenCL C library as well as the OpenCL language to python.
Clyther Features:
- Fast prototyping of OpenCL code.
- Create OpenCL code using the Python language definition.
- Strong OOP programming in OpenCL code.
- Passing functions as arguments to kernel functions.
- Python emulation mode of OpenCL code.
- Fancy indexing of arrays
- Device memory management
- Dynamic compilation at runtime
