Python Implemented In Assembly

Am just being curious but I would like to know whether python can be implemented in assembly and if not why has it not been done to help for speed issues. forgive my naivete in mat

Solution 1:

Native code isn't a magic make-it-go-faster operation. The language semantics really dictate quite a bit about how fast (or not) a language is. (For instance, erlang compiled to native code via Hipe is still fairly slow).
