It's because that list is old and has not been updated. It has the predecessor to Cython, Pyrex, but they are very different now. Both SciPy and NumPy has Cython as a build dependency, and also projects like scikit-learn, scikit-image, statsmodels. If you find C++ projects which use Swig (wxPython, PyWin32) or SIP (PyQt) it is mainly because they are older than Cython. A more recent addition, PyZMQ, use Cython to wrap C++. > I guess that's because cython is different language, right?

You can use Cython to call C++ functions in ipython and ipython notebook. cythonmagic takes care of that :-) Sturla _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
