Byteorder of audioop functions

Hi Is the byteorder (or endianness) of the functions in the audioop module somewhere specified or does anyone know how it behaves on different systems? On my little-endian system it matches the system's endianness: import sys, audioop sys.byteorder 'little' audioop.lin2lin(b'\xff', 1, 2)

Running code from source that includes extension modules

Hi I've just started looking into distutils because I need to write an extension module in C (for performance reasons) and distutils seems to be the most straight-forward way. I've had success building a C file into a Python extension module using python setup.py build but I am wondering what

[issue9303] Migrate sqlite3 module to _v2 API to enhance performance

New submission from Michael Schwarz michi.schw...@gmail.com: The Python sqlite module currently uses some deprecated API [0] of SQLite. These are functions that have a counterpart with _v2 appended to their name. The SQLite query planner will not use certain optimizations when using the old
