BOOK



Cython is a very powerful combination of Python and C. Using

Cython, you can write Python code that calls back and forth from

and to C or C++ code natively at any point. It is a language with

extra syntax allowing for optional static type declarations. It

is also a very popular language as it can be used for multicore

programming



Learning Cython Programming will provide you with a detailed

guide to extending your native applications in pure Python;

imagine embedding a twisted web server into your native

application with pure Python code. You will also learn how to get

your new applications up and running by reusing Python's

extensive libraries such as Logging and Config Parser to name a

few



With Learning Cython Programming, you will learn that writing

your own Python module in C from scratch is not only hard, but is

also unsafe. Cython will automatically handle all type-conversion

issues as well as garbage collection on your code. You can also

still write all your code in Python but have it compiled and

called directly in C as if it was just another function or

data



This book also demonstrates how you can take the open source

project Tmux and extend it to add new commands directly in pure

Python. With this book, you will learn everything you need to

know to get up and running with Cython and how you can reuse

examples in a practical way
