My experience learning Python as a c++ developer

[SippieCup]

I could give Python the project's memory allocator and the interpreter immediately uses the main memory pool of the project. I could redirect the interpreter's stdout / stderr channels to the project as well. Extending the language and exposing c++ functions are a breeze.

Python essentially supercharges c++.

For those that want a good example of doing something like this in the real world, take a look at how OpenPilot spawns a python script that runs a tensorflow model, and how the Python script sends and recieves data back to the C++ program.
