My thoughts exactly. Great concept and I will definitely follow it as it develops, but I'd love to see an abstraction layer that takes the pain out of the a$$ that is the Python C-api. I left that years ago and I'm not going back.
- dman 14y agoIve been using the Python C api recently and I find it the most straight forward option of getting performance out of Python. If you write a few helper classes in C++ using RAII - the python c-api becomes actually pretty pleasant to use.
- fixxer 14y agoI'm jealous. Granted, I learned the API before I re-learned C, so I admittedly shot myself in the foot. Now that I'm back up to speed in C (I was in a Java shop for 5 years) and doing more work in Go for my own start-up, I shy away from using Python for anything other than one-off numerical analyses.
