Hi all
I have a question
I'm trying write something about ROS, but a have at least two questions to answer.
I know that we can code ROS Packages using Python or C++, but, why these two languages were the selected languages?
For example: C++ probably is used because is fast, Python probably because is easy, less code etc.
But there is another reason to answer these questions?
The main questions are:
Why use Python and C to code ROS Packages?
How it works the ROS interface with Python and C++?
I'm sorry my not so good English,
Thank you in advance

> network, message interpretation,
> bag-file analysis, transformation and visualization, as well as the
> transmission of newly generated
> messages back into the ROS network.
