Shed Skin 0.0.29

An Optimizing (Restricted) Python-to-C++ Compiler

Latest Version: 0.2

Shed Skin is an experimental compiler, that can translate pure, but implicitly statically typed, Python programs into optimized C++, which can be further compiled as stand-alone programs or extension modules. The speedup obtained is typically between 2-40 times over Psyco, and 2-220 over CPython. Not all Python features are supported (such as variable numbers of arguments, nested functions..). And only about 17 standard library modules, such as re and random, are supported at at the moment. See the homepage for more details.
