2 篇博文 含有标签「abstract syntax tree」

On a Sunday afternoon about a couple of months ago, when Ye (https://github.com/k-ye) and I were on our way back from a long week of travel, we decided to do something to relax on the train ( to kill time). Since we happened to mention Minecraft and MagicaVoxel, we decided to do a Hackathon, where we use Taichi Lang to create a GPU path tracing voxel renderer. Soon, before we were back home, we had our prototype:

Taichi Lang is embedded in Python and it runs on any operating system and can easily interact with Python. As far as I know, apart from Taichi Lang, there's no such tooling in the Python ecosystem for generating GPU path tracing voxel renders. With Taichi Lang, one can easily create such a renderer (https://github.com/taichi-dev/voxel-challenge/blob/main/renderer.py) in around 300 lines of code.

Simple is better than complex.

In the previous blog post, we mentioned this sentence, which is a part of the zen of Python. In this post, we will show you how we simplified the code of Taichi. We have refactored the Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) transformer of taichi in the past few months. The error reporting experience has improved dramatically after the refactor. This blog mainly talks about why and how we did that.
