Synopsis

This book describes how to write modules in C or C++ to extend the Python interpreter with new modules. Those modules can not only define new functions but also new object types and their methods. The document also describes how to embed the Python interpreter in another application, for use as an extension language. Finally, it shows how to compile and link extension modules so that they can be loaded dynamically (at run time) into the interpreter, if the underlying operating system supports this feature. This book assumes basic knowledge about Python.
This book is a paper version of the freely available electronic documentation of the python project.
Based on Python Version 2.7.10
