# Python Programming/Extending with Pyrex

Pyrex is a compiler of Python-like source code to the C language,
intended to make it relatively easy for Python programmers to write fast
Python extension modules without having to learn the C language.

of Pyrex. Pyrex is no longer actively developed, the last stable release
being from 2010.
