How can I create a language independent library using Python?

Question

If I create a package in Python, then another Python user can import that package and interface with it.

How can I create a package so that it doesn\'t matter what l

Answer 1

You can use Cython to relatively easily extend your python code so that it can be compiled as a C library. Mostly, this just involved replacing the def keyword with cdef public for the functions you want to expose, and annotating your variables types.

Here's an example of such Cython code:

cdef public void grail(int num):
    printf("Ready the holy hand grenade and count to %i", num) 

At that point, many languages have Foreign Function Interfaces (FFI) to C code.
