Uhm, Python also runs on any platform. As do Perl, Ruby, JavaScript,
TCL . . . pretty much any of the higher-level "scripting" languages
are cross-platform. Java tries to be a system language, what with the
strong typing and the explicit compile step and stuff, so for it, the
fact that you can compile once and run anywhere is a selling point.
But for languages like Python et al, it's just part and parcel of
their nature.
