Python is not implemented like Java. In Java (at least in HotSpot), the byte code is further compiled to machine code before execution; in Python, the byte code is interpreted. Whether this makes Python an interpreter or a compiler, I don't know. Regards, Martin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
