python-interfaces

Tutorials for wrapping C++ code with python by 'extending'. Each folder is a tutorial in it's own.

Tutorial Guide

Since each folder is a tutorial and they have pretty random names, so if you are just gettgin started or exploring start reading folder descriptions:

1. /rectangle: writing a simple Rectangle class in C++ and PyRectangle class in Cython to initialise with some values and return certain attributes.

2. /pybind11_ex: examples built using pybind11 library based on boost, simpler does not use cmake.

3. /account: simple account transaction module, uses pybind11 and uses cmake.

4. /game_sample: taking experimentation to another level by creating a small world built using multiple files. Learned how to build bigger projects and not just a few files. Proper foldering and compilation using cmake and make. The idea is to see if multiple files can be used to make package cython.
