I'd say this could generally make sense. Would it be the case that iff cython is installed then the %cython magic would be available and just work? Also, how testable is this (e.g. via automated tests vs. having to fire up a notebook and test it manually)? - Robert _______________________________________________ cython-devel mailing list cython-devel@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cython-devel
