Is there an easy way to implement a specific method of a Python class
in C? Like a native method in Java? I would really like to do the
majority of my class code in Python and just do one or two methods
in C.
S.
Weave kinda does this - you can use it write inline C code, which it
extracts and compiles for you. (

You might also want to look at Pyrex and/or Cython, which let you
write in a Python-like language that is compiled to C.
(

http://cython.org).
Depending on what you want to do in C, just writing it as a normal
shared library and calling it with ctypes might also be an effective
solution. (in the standard library, as of 2.5)
