I don't think this page will be helpful. You should probably be looking
at http://www.python.org/doc/current/ext/embedding.html

The best way to learn is to look at existent code, and use in your
benefit the fact that you have the python source in your hands.

Looking at google for "embedding python" will be helpful as well. Here
is an URL I got in the first page:
