|
| The Cython language makes writing C extensions for the Python language as |
| easy as Python itself. Cython is a source code translator based on Pyrex_, |
| but supports more cutting edge functionality and optimizations. |
|
|
| The Cython language is a superset of the Python language (almost all Python |
| code is also valid Cython code), but Cython additionally supports optional |
| static typing to natively call C functions, operate with C++ classes and |
| declare fast C types on variables and class attributes. This allows the |
| compiler to generate very efficient C code from Cython code. |
|
|
| This makes Cython the ideal language for writing glue code for external |
| C/C++ libraries, and for fast C modules that speed up the execution of |
| Python code. |
|
|
| Note that for one-time builds, e.g. for CI/testing, on platforms that are not |
| covered by one of the wheel packages provided on PyPI *and* the pure Python wheel |
| that we provide is not used, it is substantially faster than a full source build |
| to install an uncompiled (slower) version of Cython with:: |
|
|
| pip install Cython --install-option="--no-cython-compile" |
