scipy-weave provides tools for including C/C++ code within Python code.Inlining C/C++ code within Python generally results in speedups of 1.5x to 30xover algorithms written in pure Python.

scipy-weave is the stand-alone version of the removed SciPy submodulescipy.weave. It is provided for users that need versions of SciPy fromwhich theweave submodule has been removed but have existing code thatstill depends onscipy.weave.For new code, users are recommended to useCython.

Note that the Python 3.x support is new as of version 0.19.0 (Nov 2022), and isexperimental. It is not tested on all Python 3.x versions.For Python 2.6-2.7, use versions 0.17.0 or 0.18.0
