Jython is a Java implementation of Python that combines expressive power with clarity. Jython is freely available for both commercial and non-commercial use and is distributed with source code. Jython is complementary to Java and is especially suited for the following tasks:

 * '''Embedded scripting''' - Java programmers can add the Jython libraries to their system to allow end users to write simple or complicated scripts that add functionality to the application.
 * '''Interactive experimentation''' - Jython provides an interactive interpreter that can be used to interact with Java packages or with running Java applications. This allows programmers to experiment and debug any Java system using Jython.
 * '''Rapid application development''' - Python programs are typically 2-10X shorter than the equivalent Java program. This translates directly to increased programmer productivity. The seamless interaction between Python and Java allows developers to freely mix the two languages both during development and in shipping products.

Editing pages

Since spamming and vandalism on this wiki has reached a level that is starting to require daily intervention, new users are no longer allowed to edit pages.

If you want to edit a page and have just signed up, or you find that you can no longer edit a page that you could edit before, please write to the pydotorg-www mailing list, stating your account name and your intended edits and we'll add you to the EditorsGroup.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but we want to keep this wiki a useful tool for the community, while at the same time need to prevent wiki admin burnout effects.


=== HTTPS access to the Wiki ===

We have enabled HTTPS access to the wiki to further enhance security and avoid having to send clear text passwords over the network in order to log in to the wikis.

'''If you have not been using HTTPS links to the wiki login page''', please be advised that your password may have been sniffed on the network at e.g. a conference. It is best to <<Action(userprefs, change it)>> and stop using HTTP links to the wiki login page.
