About Pyrex
Pyrex was created in 2002 by Greg Ewing. It was developed to simplify the process of writing C extensions for Python, allowing developers to write Python-like code that could be translated into C for better performance.
Pyrex's strengths included simplifying the integration of C and Python, improving performance, and ease of use for Python developers. Its weaknesses were limited support for some advanced C features and a smaller community. Competitors included Cython, which offered more features and better performance, and SWIG, which supported multiple languages beyond Python.
