What are the types of Python interpreters

In this issue, the editor will bring you about the types of Python interpreters. The article is rich in content and analyzes and narrates it from a professional point of view. I hope you can get something after reading this article.

The main Python interpreters are as follows:

1 、 CPython

The official interpreter: CPython. This interpreter is developed in C language, so it is called CPython. Running python from the command line starts the CPython interpreter. CPython is the most widely used and popular Python interpreter.

2 、 IPython

IPython is an interactive interpreter based on CPython, that is, IPython is only enhanced in the way it interacts, but the function of executing Python code is exactly the same as CPython. CPython uses > > as the prompt, while IPython uses In [serial number]: as the prompt.

3 、 PyPy

PyPy is another Python interpreter whose goal is execution speed. PyPy uses JIT technology to dynamically compile Python code (note that it is not interpreted), so it can significantly improve the execution speed of Python code.

Most Python code can be run under PyPy, but there are some differences between PyPy and CPython, which results in different results for the same Python code executed under the two interpreters. If your code is to be executed under PyPy, you need to understand the differences between PyPy and CPython.

4 、 Jython

Jython is a Python interpreter running on the Java platform, which can directly compile Python code into Java bytecode for execution.

5 、 IronPython

IronPython is similar to Jython, except that IronPython is a Python interpreter running on Microsoft's .net platform that compiles Python code directly into .net bytecode.

These are the types of Python interpreters shared by the editor. If you happen to have similar doubts, you might as well refer to the above analysis to understand. If you want to know more about it, you are welcome to follow the industry information channel.
