CPython refers to the main implementation, which is written in C. There are a bunch of different implementations, such as IronPython for .NET or Jython for the Java Virtual Machine.
There's also Cython (subtle spelling difference), which you can use to combine C and Python code. It isn't quite an implementation in the same sense, but it's close. Most folk use CPython, and it's what we discuss on this list, unless otherwise specified. http://www.python.org/getit/ http://cython.org/ Cheers On Thursday 12 May 2011, tee chwee liong wrote: > hi all, > > i just started python but i'm hearing there is cpython. what is it > different from python? is there any tutorials i can refer. > > thanks > tcl _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
