Rapid Software Prototyping and C/C++ Testing with Python

There are a lot of ways to use Python with C/C++.

For example, you can use Python for testing by wrapping existing C/C++ code with a Python class (SWIG, Boost.Python, PyCxx) and writing the test suite and drivers in Python.

Another possibility is to use Rapid Prototyping in Python and later translate to C/C++ code, either completely, or only for the performance critical parts.
