#ifndef __HADAMARD_WRAPPER_H__
#define __HADAMARD_WRAPPER_H__

#include <Python.h>
#include "structmember.h"

PyObject * hadamardWrapper(PyObject *self, PyObject *args);

#endif
You can download it here.

Now, let's write the hadamardWrapper.cpp file :

Again in this example, since we are using numpy in the module, we have to define the NO_IMPORT_ARRAY to avoid multiple definitions of the same numpy function. And we also have to specify the version of the numpy API to avoid warnings :

#define NO_IMPORT_ARRAY
#ifndef DISABLE_COOL_ARRAY
#define PY_ARRAY_UNIQUE_SYMBOL core_ARRAY_API
#endif

#define NPY_NO_DEPRECATED_API NPY_1_7_API_VERSION
Then we include appropriate files. Do not forget to include the asterics_alloc.h file to use our allocation function :

#include <iostream>
#include <numpy/arrayobject.h>
#include <bytearrayobject.h>

#include "hadamard_intrinsics_pitch.h"
#include "hadamardWrapper.h"
To parse static parameters, we have to use the function PyArg_ParseTuple, this function works the same as the scanf function from the C standard library.

Here, we parse the output table and the two input tables with 'O' which correspond to a PyObject type. In our case, a numpy array.
