is C mother of Python ?

Question

someone said me :

print("hello world")

if you run above line in python interpreter their are 4 lines of C running in background

#include <stdio.h>
void main(){
printf("hello world") ;
}

is this True 🙄 if yes then how?
if not then how python prints it ?

Answer 1

that's not as simplest as it sounds, but roughly, python interpreter is wrote in c/c++ so the short answer is true.

But that's not a basic conversion: under the hood, the python interpreter read the (precompiled) source code and execute it... you could say that's c/c++ running, but your source code is python ;P
