 Using ctypes is a powerful way to connect Python with arbitrary
 C-code. Its advantages for extending Python include
 
-- clean separation of C code from Python code
-
-    - no need to learn a new syntax except Python and C
-
-    - allows reuse of C code
-
-    - functionality in shared libraries written for other purposes can be
-      obtained with a simple Python wrapper and search for the library.
-
-
-- easy integration with NumPy through the ctypes attribute
-
-- full argument checking with the ndpointer class factory
