collections.namedtuple implemented in c.

Project description

An implementation of namedtuple written in c for warp speed.

Tested against Python 3.4 and 3.5, and 3.6 as of 3084914245d2

Warp Speed

Time to go fast.

Setup

Use qualified imports so that we can tell which namedtuple we are using.

>>> from namedtuple import namedtuple as cnamedtuple
>>> from collections import namedtuple as stdnamedtuple
>>> from pickle import dumps, loads

Little numbers

Cute graphs

These operations scale with the number of fields.

Type creation from a string of field names.

Type creation from a string of field names.

Type creation from a sequence of field names.

Type creation from a sequence of field names.

Instance creation.

Instance creation.

Less cute numbers

These operations do not scale with number of fields.

std_inst is an instance of a collections.namedtuple created type with six named fields: a, b, c, d, e, and f.

c_inst is an instance of a cnamedtuple.namedtuple created type with six named fields: a, b, c, d, e, and f.
