Can someone explain to me how an interpreter written in Python works ? Has it become bootstrapped at some stage such that the entire interpreter is written in restricted Python which is now translated to C and compiled ?

Download and install PyPy. 2.0 beta 1 or upcoming 2.0 beta 2 would be a good candidate; it's not called a beta for stability reasons.

So what does beta mean to PyPy then?

Can I combine PyPy with Numba and get a huge speed boost ... or am I confused somewhere?
