Linking Programming Languages?

Question

Is it possible to link different programming languages together (but I don't mean in web development)? I've seen GitHub projects where it looks like the different files using different programming languages have been linked? Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Yeah its possible, JNI - Java Native Interface for c++. Jython is for python.

Answer 2

Thanks both!

Answer 3

If You're talking about coding same program with more languages, the answer is yes. Nowadays it is common to code easier stuff with easy syntax language and the harder stuff with the other. For example You should combine java and python.

Answer 4

Thanks zdena! How would I do this exactly? Would I have to import a module or API?
