C-Extensions for Python 3 (legacy version 0.29)

Cython is a language that makes writing C extensions for the Python language as easy as Python itself. Cython is based on the well-known Pyrex, but supports more cutting edge functionality and optimizations.

The Cython language is very close to the Python language, but Cython additionally supports calling C functions and declaring C types on variables and class attributes. This allows the compiler to generate very efficient C code from Cython code.

This makes Cython the ideal language for wrapping external C libraries, and for fast C modules that speed up the execution of Python code.

This legacy version may not work with Python 3.12. In particular, the pyximport module appears to fail. This legacy version should not be used as a package run-time dependency.
