Metadata-Version: 1.1 Name: Cython Version: 0.22 Summary: The Cython compiler for writing C extensions for the Python language. Home-page: http://www.cython.org Author: Robert Bradshaw, Stefan Behnel, Dag Seljebotn, Greg Ewing, et al. Author-email: cython-devel@python.org License: UNKNOWN Description: The Cython language makes writing C extensions for the Python language as easy as Python itself. Cython is a source code translator based on the well-known Pyrex_, but supports more cutting edge functionality and optimizations. The Cython language is very close to the Python language (and most Python code is also valid Cython code), 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 writing glue code for external C libraries, and for fast C modules that speed up the execution of Python code. .. _Pyrex: http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/greg.ewing/python/Pyrex/ Platform: UNKNOWN Classifier: Development Status :: 5 - Production/Stable Classifier: Intended Audience :: Developers Classifier: License :: OSI Approved :: Apache Software License Classifier: Operating System :: OS Independent Classifier: Programming Language :: Python Classifier: Programming Language :: Python :: 2 Classifier: Programming Language :: Python :: 3 Classifier: Programming Language :: C Classifier: Programming Language :: Cython Classifier: Topic :: Software Development :: Code Generators Classifier: Topic :: Software Development :: Compilers Classifier: Topic :: Software Development :: Libraries :: Python Modules
