Writing a python library with a rust backend
To initialize a repo for python bindings, run:
conda create -n RustPythonBindings
conda activate RustPythonBindings
pip install maturin
maturin init
You can then install the package...
pip install .
Example:
import RustPythonBindings
x = RustPythonBindings.Number(10)
y = RustPythonBindings.Number(20)
z = x.add(y)
print(z.value())You can also run the parallel code example...
python parallel.py
sequential: 17.748s
parallel: 9.220s
sequential_allow_threads: 2.445s
