Let’s say I want to write a poker app for Android.
It is fine to use APIs in Java. But when it comes to heavy usage of arrays, sets, combinations etc Java becomes a huge pain for me. It’s much easier to code poker AI in Ruby/Python IMHO.

So the question: is there a way to use either Ruby or Python functions in Java Android Application? It should be packed in .apk of course.

UPDATE: Regarding Ruboto: As I understand from this link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ruboto.core&feature=more_from_developer#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEwMiwib3JnLnJ1Ym90by5jb3JlIl0. ruboto-core needs to be installed on device to run ruboto apps =( It’s no good if I’m going to share my app on Google Play.

    How about JRuby? It’s an open-source implementation of Ruby on top of Java that lets you use the JDK libraries. You could embed a JRuby instance into your app and run your logic using that.

    Also see Jython
