Are you saying you don't understand what I said, or you don't know what I'm alluding to? 

Blaa... Blaa... Tell me something I don't know already. More concrete example? Uhm, how about fibonacci numbers in parallel? Yes, (easiest) answer is functional programming, but but... SPUs don't support functional programming. Too bad... Oh well, you can always use PPE only. :)

One fairly good game exists on the console therefore the console is not a failure

Shenmue and Smash Bros Melee want a word.

It's the hiphopgamer, so we can all ignore him and move along

Of course such high level programming languages can be ported. I know some people who have created their own programming languages.

Of course low level and high level imperative languages are the industry standard for games programming due to much better efficiency. It makes sense to hire a bit more talented people, instead of less talented and/or more lazy ones to extensively learn C++, C, assembler, etc instead and yield great performance gains.

I was specificallly talking about games engine development.

I dont understand a dang thing you said.

Ok, can I now ask for concrete example of functional programming language that has been made for SPUs and working program that calculates fibonacci numbers? :)

You want more concrete examples or easier to understand examples? Ok, here we go...

How about example of that 10MB blocks & 200MB program with depencies on previous results and whole 10MB block.

So for every integer you must randomly choose one another integer from the same 10MB block you got the integer and randomly choose the way(add, substract, derivate function depending on those two integers, integrate function etc. up to 50 possible branches) you calculate the sub result.

1. Get one integer from 10MB block, calculate sub result and save it.

After getting sub result you must randomly decide do you need more subresults. For every sub result you will have to lower the possibility of need of new sub result(means go to step 1) by 1% and it starts from 99%. (So after first sub result theres 99% chance to be one more sub result. After that 98% etc.)

2. Randomly choose is there need for more calculations, if there is go to step 1 and substract 1% from chance of more calculations.

And to confirm that you do understand what I mean, heres pseudocode:

while(there is still integers in current 10MB block)

{

  integerToProcess=currentIntegerInFirstWhile;

  while(continue)

  {

    possibilityToContinue=99;

    foo=randomlyChooseOneIntegerFrom10MBBlock();

    bar=someRandomFunctionFrom50DifferentFunctions(integerToProcess,foo);

    if((random(1-100)-possibilityToContinue)>0)

       continue=false;

    possibilityToContinue--;

  }

}

You do know what happens when all of those SPUs(and PPU) must get their stuff from main mem? You cannot store 10MB into SPUs memories. Neither you can store results of every branch and use them. You could of course make datastreams of what to do for SPUs but that would mean too much work for PPU, because those streams could be veeery long and of course they could be way too large for mem in some cases. You do know how this would work on X360, don't you? :)

Others:

Sorry if you didn't understand anything. ^^

Here's what I meant: 

(1) At first I couldn't figure out what the heck you meant by (A), but then I realized that it would make sense if you were referring to (B), that is, the performance of the PPE. 

(2) This has nothing to do with (3). 

(3) When Procrastinato said (C), I won't deny that it's at least remotely possible that he could be referring to performance; but it's much more likely that he was referring to the fact that it's the Power Processor Element [edit:  or Unit] and certainly not Physics Processing Unit.  The SPEs are Synergistic Processing Elements.  (It would be fairly understandable if you had thought PPE and SPE meant Primary/Secondary.) 

When he said (D), there can be no question IMO that he was referring to the fact that the SPEs EACH run at 3.2 GHz, not that they ADD UP to 3.2 GHz (or ~457MHz each) -- let alone the fact that "adding up" the speeds would make absolutely zero sense. 

Additionally, the implication of what you said is that the Cell only has 2/3 the power of the Xenon (though the Cell is better at multitasking).  No wonder Gears of War 2 looks so great! 

I knew what you meant i just didnt know what those big fancy words meant,not impeccable but Procrastinato.

Can the PS3 run this code?

ON CATURDAY
  IM IN YR BED
  I IZ SLEEPIN!!10
  VISIBLE "Z!"
  KTHX
KTHXBYE

Or this code?

HAI
CAN HAS STDIO?
PLZ OPEN FILE "LOLCATS.TXT"?
                AWSUM THX
  VISIBLE FILE
  O NOES
  INVISIBLE "ERROR!"
KTHXBYE

But ... you ... ?

If you knew what I was getting at, but not some specific word definitions, there's always the dictionary. 

P.S.  I remembered that PPU/SPU is an alternate term (the only difference is "... Unit".)  My above post has been edited in the original to reflect this.
