(Please don't keep top-posting.) Okay. So as I understand it, this requires the full CPython interpreter to be included at run-time; how does this help you work seamlessly with other languages? How is this different from simply having CPython (or PyPy, since you're messing with performance - PyPy JIT-compiles to native code, so it can be pretty fast), Ruby, etc, etc all installed and operating separately? Here's a concrete example. Python has several data types for storing numbers. Notably, int (which can store *any* integer), and float (which can store non-integers as well, but has roughly 53 bits of storage). JavaScript has only the latter. So how can the two interoperate correctly? Can Python code call a JavaScript function? Vice versa? And if not, how seamlessly are the languages actually able to work together?
