Yes, this is the purpose of the C class.  Sometimes it is impossible to import 
something directly because of circular imports, so we have the C class to get 
around it.

I would recommend doing the combinatorica project.  The Karr algorithm is very 
difficult.  

Also, you need to finish up the review of your integral equations module so 
that it gets pushed in.  Otherwise, you will not be eligible.
