Hi everyone, I'm Chris Wanstrath.

When Jeremy asked me to come talk, I said yes.  Hell yes.  Immediately.  But
then I took a few moments and thought, Wait, why?  Why me?  What am I supposed
to say that's interesting?  Something about Ruby, perhaps.  Maybe the
future of it.  The future of something, at least.  That sounds
keynote-y.

Cython example of exposing C-computed arrays in Python without data copies

The goal of this example is to show how an existing C codebase for numerical computing (here c_code.c) can be wrapped in Cython to be exposed in Python.

The meat of the example is that the data is allocated in C, but exposed in Python without a copy using the PyArray_SimpleNewFromData numpy

Ok, I geeked out, and this is probably more information than you need. But it completely answers the question. Sorry. ☺

Locally, I'm at this commit:

When I added FIRST/NEXT/LAST, it was idiomatic but not quite so fast. This makes it faster. Another little bit of masak++'s program.
