Python on Heroku You can run python on heroku with a system call from a ruby app. Just run something like: @output = `echo \"#{variable}\" | python script.py`. This will let you read standard out from a python script. |

As for using Python, like another poster said it's included in most Linux distros, and Heroku is really just running a Linux distro at the end of the day. I imagine that if you wanted to run a really simple script they wouldn't care, but I wouldn't build my whole app around it, because they can turn it off at any time.
