No language needs compilation - it's an implementation problem, not a language problem. Now all the Python's implementations I know do use compilation (to byte-code). > its py and pyo file is architecture independent. True, but this is not strictly related to being compiled or not. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
