   Equivalent to :c:macro:`Py_LOCAL` but additionally requests the function
   be inlined.

 .. c:macro:: Py_LOCAL_SYMBOL

   Macro used to declare a symbol as local to the shared library (hidden).
   On supported platforms, it ensures the symbol is not exported.

   On compatible versions of GCC/Clang, it
   expands to ``__attribute__((visibility("hidden")))``.

 .. c:macro:: Py_MAX(x, y)

   Return the maximum value between ``x`` and ``y``.
      sizeof(array) / sizeof((array)[0])


 .. c:macro:: Py_EXPORTED_SYMBOL

   Macro used to declare a symbol (function or data) as exported.
   On Windows, this expands to ``__declspec(dllexport)``.
   On compatible versions of GCC/Clang, it
   expands to ``__attribute__((visibility("default")))``.
   This macro is for defining the C API itself; extension modules should not use it.


 .. c:macro:: Py_IMPORTED_SYMBOL

   Macro used to declare a symbol as imported.
   On Windows, this expands to ``__declspec(dllimport)``.
   This macro is for defining the C API itself; extension modules should not use it.


 .. c:macro:: PyAPI_FUNC(type)

   Macro used by CPython to declare a function as part of the C API.
   Its expansion depends on the platform and build configuration.
   This macro is intended for defining CPython's C API itself;
   extension modules should not use it for their own symbols.


 .. c:macro:: PyAPI_DATA(type)

   Macro used by CPython to declare a public global variable as part of the C API.
   Its expansion depends on the platform and build configuration.
   This macro is intended for defining CPython's C API itself;
   extension modules should not use it for their own symbols.
