[IPython-dev] Cython magics have been merged!

[Fernando Perez]

Hi folks,

we just concluded review and merge of the cython magics:
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/pull/1770!

Kudos to Brian for a terrific job, and please let us know if you spot
any problems.  There's an example notebook provided
(docs/examples/notebooks/cython_extension.ipynb) so you can see it in
action.

We think this will be very useful, and the system also serves as a
reference on how to implement other extensions with useful magics.

The R one is also in review and very close to ready:
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/pull/1780, so pitch in with your
feedback if there's anything there you think can be improved.

Cheers,

f
