PICAXE Chip and c++ programming language.

Hello, I was wondering if we can program a PICAXE chip with c++ programming language or not. I have a robot from my school project which runs by PICAXE chip which uses BASIC language. I wanted to erase that program and program it with c++. Is it possible?

This seems to indicate you cannot easily do it because the Basic bootloader is onboard so you would need to bypass that and use a separate one of your own if that is at all possible.

You can buy c++ bootloaders/programmers that use C++ eg for the Arduino Nano etc but I don't know how/whether you connect to a PICAXE

(It's interesting that PICAXE uses Basic for supposed simplicity when C++ as used by an Arduino isn't all that hard for beginners to grasp quickly. But there we go ... :)
