Give an explanation of the difference between Jython and Python and why Jython was found.
The real difference between Jython and Python lies in the
interpreter and execution. Both are python based codes only but
Jython is interpreted as java i.e. executed on JVM. This is the
main difference.
Jython was found becuase of the need to execute python code on many
platforms. Normally through JVM, if the JVM package is installed
for that particular platform, one can easily execute Jython in that
platform so the code don't need to platform specific. Same code can
be used for various platforms , one just need to install platform
specific JVM package.So, this simplify many things and for this
reason Jython was born.
