Subject: Re: [Tutor] Python Extensions in C


James Reynolds, 26.05.2011 17:22:
As an intellectual exercise, I wanted to try my hand at writing some
extensions in C.

This is fine for en exercise, and I hope you had fun doing this.

However, for real code, I suggest you use Cython instead. Your module would have been substantially simpler and likely also faster.

Hello James -

I saw in your email 'Being a kinetic learner' and I had to look that up - is there a difference between the words 'kinetic' and 'kinesthetic'? When I googled it, I am sure I am a kinetic learner also and I come up with programming exercises for myself as well. I am originally a C programmer and now I really like Python. I don't know what it will be like for you to learn these languages the other way around, I am not
the teacher-type.

And thanks to Rachel-Mikel for that really nice piece of code to save for the future.

Regards,

Patty
