you can write externals in a wide number of other languages as well (including (but not limited to) Pd (which is even more natural than C), C++, python, lua, java, haskell and HQ9+)<br>

Could you expand a little on writing externals with python please?<br>

You can't really write externals in python, but you can embed python scripts into Pd using Thomas Grill's pyext. The Java support is a clone of Max/MSP's mxj, which is very similar to pyext. You can write external objects in Pd, C, C++, and lua.<br>
