You can run MicroPython on the nRF51822. That's a GC language. I've ran some fairly complex programs on it.
Lack of careful programming and you run out of memory, but that's more a function of assuming you have a large memory space, not GC in general.
- chrisseaton 7y agoI think the person you’re replying to means a GC that needs headroom, not a GC like Python’s which generally doesn’t.
- masklinn 7y agoFWIW micropython replace's cpython's refcount-with-cycle-breaker by a mark-and-sweep GC: https://github.com/micropython/micropython/wiki/Memory-Manager https://github.com/micropython/micropython/wiki/Memory-Manag...
