Spin
Spin is the primary high level language for programming the Parallax P8X32A microcontroller.
Typically a Spin compiler runs on a PC and produces Spin bytecode for the bytecode interpreter each P8X32A chip contains.
Atypical:
FastSpin can compile Spin code to C, C++, LMM-PASM and COG-PASM (the native machine code of the P8X32A) and even generate C or C++ code for e.g. GCC on other systems than the Parallax P8X32A microcontroller.
Sphinxcompiler and Spinc are executed on operating systems running on the P8X32A.
