The C-based search engine core was also wrapped as a Python extension module. Some C++ is used in the interfaces to key third party technologies. Python's flexibility in this regard gave us a wide degree of flexibility in integration. Other software packages that are i...

    ...modules and packages, which encourages program modularity and code reuse. The Python interpreter and the extensive standard library are available in source or binary form without charge for all major platforms, and can be freely distributed.
