Re: uasyncio - determining if a function is a coroutine

ok thanks for the info. The current uasyncio implementation is CPython compatible almost everywhere because this time it was a basic requirement to be CPython compatible. But it does not distinguish between a coroutine and a generator. But from the top of my head I can't think of how someone would a...

Re: uasyncio - determining if a function is a coroutine

lol ok.. interesting. Why didn't they just use the "official" uasyncio module? .. (sorry I know you're not the right person for this question)

Re: uasyncio - determining if a function is a coroutine

CircuitPython has no asyncio support afaik, why would they need a distinction between coroutines and generators?

Re: uasyncio - determining if a function is a coroutine

I don't know a better way either. It's probably not easy because of the changes to keep everything "micro".

Re: uasyncio - determining if a function is a coroutine

The difference is that Christian's approach doesn't execute the function and purely inspects it "untouched", while pythoncoder's approach executes the function and then checks if the returned type is an active generator function which can be passed to uasyncio.create_task(). Pythoncoder's approach i...

Re: Porting a library from Circuitpython

You are missing an __init__.py in both the root and the ht16k33 directory. Then it should work.
(btw, if it works in CPython, it'll work in micropython)

Re: Is it good practice to keep calling `del` on objects that I don't need anymore?

In my project I import multiple modules. After each import statement I call gc.collect() to free all the RAM that only was only temporarily used during import. Then I call gc.collect() after creating bigger objects. This ensures that the RAM is as continuously used as possible and the fragmentation ...

Re: Is it good practice to keep calling `del` on objects that I don't need anymore?

I only use "del" in long running loops which occasionally create large temporary data structures. (Afterwards I call gc.collect() to free that RAM). That way those variables don't take up unneccessary RAM. Simple, yet weird example: while True: a={} a.update(await get_results()) await asyncio.sleep(...

Re: WebREPL freezes when pasting large code block

Might also be due to socket operations in webrepl making it slower, more complex and more resource hungry?
