[Tutor] jython and dynamic typing

[Erik Price]

Okay... admittedly I don't know much about Python, and I know even less 
about Java.  But I was wondering something about Jython --

 From what I understand, in Java the types must be declared and cannot be 
interchanged like they can in Python.  So then how does Jython 
"translate" Python programs that take advantage of dynamic typing into 
the stricter Java code?  Mind you, since I don't know much about Java, a 
layman's answer would be great if possible.

TIA,


Erik
