> I've extended Python with C for funsies, but have never, not once, needed to do it at work. I used to do it much more in my earlier days of python 2 in around the mid-00s. It was more often the case that there was some C library I wanted to interface back then. It’s still useful in performance situations (high iteration counts, library writing, etc). But I find myself doing it much less often now.
