Passing list with flexible length to C extension

[Boštjan Jerko]

Is there a way to pass list with flexible length to C extension?
I want to pass flexible length list of floats to method and just can't get info
if it is possible and how to do it.

Thanks,

B.

Yes, although I'm not quite sure what you mean. Do you want to be
able to type

my_ext_func([3.0, 1.0, 4.0, 1.0, 5.0])

or

my_ext_func(3.0, 1.0, 4.0, 1.0, 5.0)

? If the latter you can't use PyArg_ParseTuple, but the `args'
parameter is just a tuple, amenable to PyTuple_Length & so on.

Cheers,
