[edit] Pyrex

Date: November 25, 2008, at 3:30 PM
Presenters: Evan Broder (broder)
Location: 4-231
Abstract: Pyrex is a programming language developed to aid in creating Python modules. Python provides a C API to write extension modules, which allows writing of functions and datatypes in C. These can then be accessed from Python. It is thus also possible to wrap the functions and datatypes of existing C libraries as Python objects and therefore make them available to Python.

This talk will provide a tutorial introduction to Pyrex and its usage.
