### Current Limitations ### Current Limitations
* The entire set of standard python libraries is **not** supported. If a module is missing it will be due to the inapplicability of that module for use in an embedded controller. High memory consumption (e.g. sqlite3) or a lack of a certain required hardware feature (e.g. multiprocessing) are reasons that some modules can not be implemented for some microcontrollers. * The entire set of standard python libraries is **not** supported.
