  Introduction to PyObjC
Subject:   RubyCocoa

PyObjC is also focused on accessing the Cocoa frameworks. Prior to the last year of development, PyObjC's approach was identical to RubyCocoa-- provide access to the frameworks in a high level, call only, fashion.


When Ronald added the ability to subclass ObjC classes from Python, that changed slightly. With the ability to subclass ObjC classes, Python can now be used to entirely replace Objective-C in most Cocoa projects (there are still a handful of APIs that have not been bridged).


The next article-- if O'Reilly approves it-- will focus on using Project Builder to build a standard Cocoa application whose implementation is entirely in Python that uses subclassing to achieve full integration with Cocoa while leveraging the power of Python's web services tools.

    Please could one explain the similarities and differences between Ruby and Python in a short paragraph? Because I don't know either of them.
    Thanks
