shown in Listing~\ref{lst:bcview}, the \CI{ByteCode} view is a boxed \gls{RWST}
that writes bytecode instructions (\CI{BC}, Subsection~\ref{sec:instruction})
while carrying around a \CI{BCState}. The state is kept between compilations

-The semantics for the \glspl{mTask} bytecode view are different from the
-semantics of the \gls{C} view. \glspl{Task} in the \gls{C} view can start new
-\glspl{Task} or even start themselves to continue, while in the bytecode view,
-\glspl{Task} run indefinitly, one-shot or on interrupt. To allow interval and
-interrupt \glspl{Task} to terminate, a return instruction is added. This class
-was not available in the original system and is thus added. It just writes a
-single instruction so that the interpreter knows to stop execution.

All assignable types compile to a \gls{RWST} which writes the specific fetch
-instruction(s). For example, using a \gls{SDS} always results in an expression
+instruction(s). For example, using an \gls{SDS} always results in an expression
of the form \CI{sds \x=4 In ...}. The actual \CI{x} is the \gls{RWST} that
always writes one \CI{BCSdsFetch} instruction with the correctly embedded
\gls{SDS}. Assigning to an analog pin will result in the \gls{RWST} containing
