> Hi,

> The meta description on the home page reads as follows:
> 
> Home page for Python, an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented, extensible
> programming language. It provides an extraordinary combination of clarity and
> versatility, and is free and comprehensively ported.

> CPython) are not strictly interpreted anyway - most use some sort of
> bytecode and a VM.
