Numeric ->  String conversion is done with the BACK-quote character=20
`<num> `. So to concatenate:

s =3D 'test'
n =3D 123
c =3D s + `n`

This one got me too when I started using Jython.

Of course if you REALLY WANT to use Java, you could; for Integers:

from java.lang import Integer
c =3D s + Integer(a).toString()

Although if it might not be an Integer it would be harder.

Anyway, `` handles PyInteger and PyFloat.

Have fun !
