Any Programming Language to Python Converter — Claude & Claude.ai
A prompt that turns code in any language into Python and adds comments so you can follow the logic.
Open on GitHubWhat Any Programming Language to Python Converter does
You hand the model a snippet in any language, and it gives back a Python version with explanations written as comments. Handy when you need to port someone else's script or read an algorithm in syntax you don't know.
The code goes inside curly braces: {{code here}}. The model treats that block as the source and works from it, so the rest of your message can stay free-form.
This runs as a conversation in Claude or Claude.ai — no file to install. Comments land inside the code itself, so you read both together. If you want a clean translation with no annotations, this prompt is the wrong tool.
What it helps with
- port a script from another language to Python
- read unfamiliar syntax through inline comments
- move a documentation example into Python
- work out what a foreign function actually does
- adapt a snippet for your own project
Example prompts for the agent
- Convert this code to Python: {{code here}}
- Here's code in another language, give me a Python version with comments: {{code here}}
- Explain what this code does in comments and rewrite it in Python: {{code here}}
