If you should choose cython please don't follow scipy too closely. Up until rather recent git head they did not ship the cython sources in their source tarballs which occasionally lead to inconsistent generated files (e.g. in 0.10.1 interpnd.pyx) and causes trouble for distributors (see e.g. debian bug 589731) A better example to follow would be e.g. pyzmq which ships both the cython and generated sources and has an easy to use cython setup.py target to recythonize. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep yourself connected to Go Parallel: INSIGHTS What's next for parallel hardware, programming and related areas?
