cinpy - write C in Python Dependencies ------------ TCC Tiny C Compiler, well... at least libtcc.so http://bellard.org/tcc/ Installation ------------ Install the required software (tcc). Download from link above, extract, and run: ./configure --disable-static make Then copy libtcc.so to appropriate place, for example to the directory that contains cinpy.py or to /usr/local/lib, or run (sudo) make install. Once they are installed, run "python cinpy.py" to execute the cinpy module test. If all tests passed, cinpy is ready for use. Benchmarking ------------ cinpy_test.py is a very small benchmark program. It reports the time required to execute the same functions written in Python and in C.
