Jeffrey, try this: 1. change first line to public class Vehicle { 2. shell> javac Vehicle.java 3. shell> jython [liao@zen tmp]$ jython Jython 2.1 on java1.3.1 (JIT: null) Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
import Vehicle v = Vehicle(3,5,6) v Vehicle@3f1179
cheers, Luby
I'm in the middle of learning some Java to get ready for next year's AP CSC course. I would like to make good use of the Python my students already know, and I was thinking that Jython might offer some interesting educational opportunities.
What I would most like to be able to do is to import Java classes into Python in order to be able to "play around" with them in the interpreter. So far, I have not been able to make this work. I'm starting with a simple example from our book:
class Vehicle { public int passengers; public int fuelcap; public int mpg;
public Vehicle(int p, int f, int m) { passengers = p; fuelcap = f; mpg = m; }
public int range() { return mpg * fuelcap; }
public double fuelneeded(int miles) { return (double) miles / mpg; } }
(Actually, I added all the "public"s because otherwise Jython
couldn't
see them when I did:
import Vehicle
How can I create a Vehicle object inside of Jython?
Thanks!
