You could write an extension module. See Modules/xxmodule.c in the Python source tree, as well as http://docs.python.org/ext/ext.html In the specific case, if it weren't for the digits argument, the wrapper function would read static PyObject* Py_DoSomeStuff(PyObject*unused, PyObject* args) { char *input; if (!PyArg_ParseTuple("s:DoSomeStuff", &input)) return NULL; return PyString_FromString(DoSomeStuff(input)); } I cannot extend this to digits, as I don't know how the digits are represented if there is more than one (i.e. how does DoSomeStuff know how many digits are being passed?) If DoSomeStuff returns NULL on errors, additional exception throwing is necessary. If DoSomeStuff returns memory that the caller needs to release, you need to do so before returning from Py_DoSomeStuff. Regards, Martin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
