  • Comparing Python to Other Languages

    ...Python; Python can also be used to prototype components until their design can be "hardened" in a Java implementation. To support this type of development, a Python implementation written in Java is under development, which allows calling Python code from Java and vice versa.

Javascript Python's "object-based" subset is roughly equivalen...
