The benefits: 1. You will link with high quality libstdc++ with lots of reusable containers without writing your own "buggy" one. 2. C++ is much much more maintainable than pure C. It drastically increase number of contributors that what like writing high quality and maintainable code without reinventing the wheel.
My personal stop of contributing in CPython is that it is written in pure C !! I wrote code in both: pure C and C++, but I like writing code in C++, because it simplifies things without losing perfomance _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/YNVO3NM7J77AHVOPGCOTWZELTTHHA7YB/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
