If you don't have any specific questions then here's an example I made of using Cython in the Sage Notebook to perform fast matrix multiplication: (Note that I'm just re-implementing the naive algorithm using various stages of Python->Cython conversion.)

http://uw.sagenb.org/home/pub/19/

It's based on a talk made by one of the lead Cython developers. Also, the Cython documentation is excellent and most, if not all, of the language elements work naturally in the notebook environment.

I have another one demonstrating Sage/Pylab interfacing: http://uw.sagenb.org/home/pub/20/. This one is also based on a Cython talk.

Thanks very much for the notebook-oriented links. I'd issue thumbs up if not for my karma.

This question is extremely open ended and not very specific, so I'm not sure how to answer.

One point, is that you use %cython to create a notebook cell that is evaluated using Cython.

Do you have a more specific question about using Cython with the Sage notebook?

Thanks, I hadn't seen the %cython directive before. I didn't see cython in the language pull-down, and the docs I've found so far are command-line oriented. I was hoping for a small notebook example. I googled it, but didn't see what I was looking for.

A short example (notebook/cell-based) on the cython.org homepage would be great.

There are lots of examples if you search sagenb.org for "%cython": Here is the search

A particularly nice example is here
