Description:C-Extensions for Python Cython is a language that makes writing C extensions for the Python language as easy as Python itself. Cython is based on the well-known Pyrex, but supports more cutting edge functionality and optimizations. . The Cython language is very close to the Python language, but Cython additionally supports calling C functions and declaring 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 wrapping external C libraries, and for fast C modules that speed up the execution of Python code.
