ctypes.xFUNCTYPE are another opportunity to advertise decorators.
Please consider inserting yet another qsort example written as a
decorator, perhaps as follows. Or---it could be that I'm slow and the
average pythonista will figure this out on first read.
@CFUNCTYPE(c_int, POINTER(c_int), POINTER(c_int))
def py_cmp_func(*args):
(a,b,) = (t[0] for t in args)
print("py_cmp_func", a, b)
return a-b
qsort(ia,len(ia),sizeof(c_int),py_cmp_func)
