I thought function calls was one of the decently optimized things in Python
Just code in C
Just code in assembly
Just punch the cards
Just wire up your own gates. It's not that hard.
Just ritualistically wave a magnet near the computer
Yes.
Don’t write code, why do you need a computer to do your math? Just do it on paper ffs.
Paper‽ What too good for a clay tablet?
The downvotes are hilarious. Being able to drop down to C is one of python's selling points, and the title of the post includes the name of the python ref implementation CPython.
There is a difference being able to drop down in C and using exclusively C.
One of the main advantage of python is being to quickly write code, and using C-based library / part of code written in C (or fortran, or rust for what it matters) when needed.
"just write C" may lack a bit of nuance.
Exactly.
I don't really care, people will downvote for any number of reasons, and I know I was right, so it doesn't bug me
How about no.
