Make Python Up to 150× Faster with C
SMRTR summary
Python developers facing performance bottlenecks can dramatically accelerate computationally intensive algorithms by integrating C code through three methods: subprocess calls, ctypes libraries, or Python C extensions. Testing with the Levenshtein distance algorithm showed C implementations running over 150 times faster than pure Python, with C extensions providing the best performance for sequential algorithms where NumPy offers little benefit.
