STINNER Victor added the comment: > "allocate nbytes elements of size 1"
PyObject_Malloc(100) asks to allocate one object of 100 bytes. For PyMem_Malloc() and PyMem_RawMalloc(), it's more difficult to guess, but IMO it's sane to bet that a single memory block of size bytes is requested. I consider that char data[100] is a object of 100 bytes, but you call it 100 object of 1 byte. I don't think that using nelem or elsize matters in practice. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21233> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
