C/C++

There a various tools which make it easier to bridge the gap between Python and C/C++:

• [http://www.swig.org/ SWIG] - generate extension module from your .h files

• ["boost.python"] - write (tiny) C++ class to wrap your classes in an extension module

• [http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/~greg/python/Pyrex/ Pyrex] - write your extension module on Python

• [http://cxx.sourceforge.net/ CXX]

• [http://starship.python.net/crew/gmcm/scxx.html SCXX]

• ["weave"] - include C code lines in Python program

[Hint: The idea is to create pages for the stuff, not just link it.]

[[There are also interesting solutions for co-operation between Python and such languages as Tcl, Perl, Fortran, Prolog, and many others. We'll write more on these subjects, in time.]]
