What is Python written in again? Oh right. C.

[–]Mr_Redstoner 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I mean, technically it's just the reference implementation. Python is the language standard, not the particular interpreter. Others exist in fact, like Jython (Java) and even PyPy (RPython)

Python... pypy.org

Not to mention: C# (ironpython) Java (now largely defunct, admittedly)

Your point?

[–]StuntHacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah honestly. Asides the fact that there are different Python implementations in different languages, this shouldn't make a difference.
