-NumPy provides a C-API to enable users to extend the system and get
-access to the array object for use in other routines. The best way to
-truly understand the C-API is to read the source code. If you are
-unfamiliar with (C) source code, however, this can be a daunting
-experience at first. Be assured that the task becomes easier with
-practice, and you may be surprised at how simple the C-code can be to
-understand. Even if you don't think you can write C-code from scratch,
-it is much easier to understand and modify already-written source code
-then create it *de novo*.

-Python extensions are especially straightforward to understand because
-they all have a very similar structure. Admittedly, NumPy is not a
-trivial extension to Python, and may take a little more snooping to
-grasp. This is especially true because of the code-generation
-techniques, which simplify maintenance of very similar code, but can
-make the code a little less readable to beginners. Still, with a
-little persistence, the code can be opened to your understanding. It
-is my hope, that this guide to the C-API can assist in the process of
-becoming familiar with the compiled-level work that can be done with
-NumPy in order to squeeze that last bit of necessary speed out of your
-code.
