I've heard it's pyhton using Java Languange, but what is it actually?
Any more details?

Answer 1

an implementation of python using the java language

see processing for example which is a java based ide

they included processing.py (the python mode) so the user can write python code but it gets executed by java

in sum, a java program used to execute python instructions

Answer 2

Jython is an implementation of the Python programming language designed to run on the Java platform.

Answer 3

Usually python code first transforms into python bytecode. Than the python virtual machine executes the bytecode. This is the process in Cpython.

But in Jython, python code transforms into JAVA bytecode, then the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) executes it.

So the only difference here is the virtual machine language uses. I don't know the performance differences between. But the language you use is still python. Just vm is diffrent.

Happy coding : )
