Introduction to jython

Abstract

While these implementations provide almost identical a Python-language programming environment, there are several differences. Since Jython is fully implemented in Java, it is completely integrated into the Java platform, so one can call any Java class and method using the Python-language syntax. This has some consequences for the way you would program in Jython. During the execution of Jython programs, the Jython source code is translated to Java bytecode that can run on any computer that supports the Java virtual machine.
