Jython Essentials by Samuele Pedroni
Jython is an implementation of the Python programming language, integrated with the Java platform. The secret to Jython's success lies in Java's architecture and tool set, and Python's rapid development. This work offers an introduction to the language, with reference material and examples.
Samuele Pedroni is one of the main Jython developers. He holds a CS flavored diploma in mathematics from the ETH Zurich (Swiss institute of technology in Zurich). He is now a teacher and research assistant at the Institute of Theoretical CS. He plans to come to the US for a PhD in the field of dynamic languages and dynamic compilation. He came to Jython with the interest in improving it with respect to Java importing and reloading. He has developed several important patches related to java integration, classloaders, and the reworking of java/python importing rules and design. Noel Rappin has a Ph.D. in computer science. His research includes teaching Object-Oriented Programming and Design. He has worked with Java for five years, and with Python more recently. Noel also contributed a chapter, which introduced Squeak to Java or C++ programmers, to the book Squeak: Open Personal Computing and Multimedia (PH).
