-Object Protocol
-===============
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_Print(PyObject *o, FILE *fp, int flags)
-
-   Print an object *o*, on file *fp*.  Returns ``-1`` on error.  The flags argument
-   is used to enable certain printing options.  The only option currently supported
-   is :const:`Py_PRINT_RAW`; if given, the :func:`str` of the object is written
-   instead of the :func:`repr`.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_HasAttr(PyObject *o, PyObject *attr_name)
-
-   Returns ``1`` if *o* has the attribute *attr_name*, and ``0`` otherwise.  This
-   is equivalent to the Python expression ``hasattr(o, attr_name)``.  This function
-   always succeeds.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_HasAttrString(PyObject *o, const char *attr_name)
-
-   Returns ``1`` if *o* has the attribute *attr_name*, and ``0`` otherwise.  This

-   always succeeds.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_GetAttr(PyObject *o, PyObject *attr_name)
-
-   Retrieve an attribute named *attr_name* from object *o*. Returns the attribute
-   value on success, or *NULL* on failure.  This is the equivalent of the Python

-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_SetAttr(PyObject *o, PyObject *attr_name, PyObject *v)
-
-   Set the value of the attribute named *attr_name*, for object *o*, to the value
-   *v*. Returns ``-1`` on failure.  This is the equivalent of the Python statement

-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_SetAttrString(PyObject *o, const char *attr_name, PyObject *v)
-
-   Set the value of the attribute named *attr_name*, for object *o*, to the value

-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_DelAttr(PyObject *o, PyObject *attr_name)
-
-   Delete attribute named *attr_name*, for object *o*. Returns ``-1`` on failure.

-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_DelAttrString(PyObject *o, const char *attr_name)
-
-   Delete attribute named *attr_name*, for object *o*. Returns ``-1`` on failure.
-   This is the equivalent of the Python statement ``del o.attr_name``.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_RichCompare(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2, int opid)
-
-   Compare the values of *o1* and *o2* using the operation specified by *opid*,
-   which must be one of :const:`Py_LT`, :const:`Py_LE`, :const:`Py_EQ`,
-   :const:`Py_NE`, :const:`Py_GT`, or :const:`Py_GE`, corresponding to ``<``,
-   ``<=``, ``==``, ``!=``, ``>``, or ``>=`` respectively. This is the equivalent of
-   the Python expression ``o1 op o2``, where ``op`` is the operator corresponding
-   to *opid*. Returns the value of the comparison on success, or *NULL* on failure.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_RichCompareBool(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2, int opid)
-
-   Compare the values of *o1* and *o2* using the operation specified by *opid*,
-   which must be one of :const:`Py_LT`, :const:`Py_LE`, :const:`Py_EQ`,
-   :const:`Py_NE`, :const:`Py_GT`, or :const:`Py_GE`, corresponding to ``<``,
-   ``<=``, ``==``, ``!=``, ``>``, or ``>=`` respectively. Returns ``-1`` on error,
-   ``0`` if the result is false, ``1`` otherwise. This is the equivalent of the
-   Python expression ``o1 op o2``, where ``op`` is the operator corresponding to
-   *opid*.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_Cmp(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2, int *result)
-
-   .. index:: builtin: cmp
-
-   Compare the values of *o1* and *o2* using a routine provided by *o1*, if one
-   exists, otherwise with a routine provided by *o2*.  The result of the comparison
-   is returned in *result*.  Returns ``-1`` on failure.  This is the equivalent of
-   the Python statement ``result = cmp(o1, o2)``.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_Compare(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)
-
-   .. index:: builtin: cmp
-
-   Compare the values of *o1* and *o2* using a routine provided by *o1*, if one
-   exists, otherwise with a routine provided by *o2*.  Returns the result of the
-   comparison on success.  On error, the value returned is undefined; use
-   :cfunc:`PyErr_Occurred` to detect an error.  This is equivalent to the Python
-   expression ``cmp(o1, o2)``.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_Repr(PyObject *o)
-
-   .. index:: builtin: repr
-
-   Compute a string representation of object *o*.  Returns the string
-   representation on success, *NULL* on failure.  This is the equivalent of the
-   Python expression ``repr(o)``.  Called by the :func:`repr` built-in function and
-   by reverse quotes.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_Str(PyObject *o)
-
-   .. index:: builtin: str
-
-   Compute a string representation of object *o*.  Returns the string
-   representation on success, *NULL* on failure.  This is the equivalent of the
-   Python expression ``str(o)``.  Called by the :func:`str` built-in function
-   and, therefore, by the :func:`print` function.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_Unicode(PyObject *o)
-
-   .. index:: builtin: unicode
-
-   Compute a Unicode string representation of object *o*.  Returns the Unicode
-   string representation on success, *NULL* on failure. This is the equivalent of
-   the Python expression ``unicode(o)``.  Called by the :func:`unicode` built-in
-   function.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_IsInstance(PyObject *inst, PyObject *cls)
-
-   Returns ``1`` if *inst* is an instance of the class *cls* or a subclass of
-   *cls*, or ``0`` if not.  On error, returns ``-1`` and sets an exception.  If
-   *cls* is a type object rather than a class object, :cfunc:`PyObject_IsInstance`
-   returns ``1`` if *inst* is of type *cls*.  If *cls* is a tuple, the check will
-   be done against every entry in *cls*. The result will be ``1`` when at least one
-   of the checks returns ``1``, otherwise it will be ``0``. If *inst* is not a
-   class instance and *cls* is neither a type object, nor a class object, nor a
-   tuple, *inst* must have a :attr:`__class__` attribute --- the class relationship
-   of the value of that attribute with *cls* will be used to determine the result
-   of this function.
-
-
-Subclass determination is done in a fairly straightforward way, but includes a
-wrinkle that implementors of extensions to the class system may want to be aware
-of.  If :class:`A` and :class:`B` are class objects, :class:`B` is a subclass of
-:class:`A` if it inherits from :class:`A` either directly or indirectly.  If
-either is not a class object, a more general mechanism is used to determine the
-class relationship of the two objects.  When testing if *B* is a subclass of
-*A*, if *A* is *B*, :cfunc:`PyObject_IsSubclass` returns true.  If *A* and *B*
-are different objects, *B*'s :attr:`__bases__` attribute is searched in a
-depth-first fashion for *A* --- the presence of the :attr:`__bases__` attribute
-is considered sufficient for this determination.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_IsSubclass(PyObject *derived, PyObject *cls)
-
-   Returns ``1`` if the class *derived* is identical to or derived from the class
-   *cls*, otherwise returns ``0``.  In case of an error, returns ``-1``. If *cls*
-   is a tuple, the check will be done against every entry in *cls*. The result will
-   be ``1`` when at least one of the checks returns ``1``, otherwise it will be
-   ``0``. If either *derived* or *cls* is not an actual class object (or tuple),
-   this function uses the generic algorithm described above.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyCallable_Check(PyObject *o)
-
-   Determine if the object *o* is callable.  Return ``1`` if the object is callable
-   and ``0`` otherwise.  This function always succeeds.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_Call(PyObject *callable_object, PyObject *args, PyObject *kw)
-
-   Call a callable Python object *callable_object*, with arguments given by the
-   tuple *args*, and named arguments given by the dictionary *kw*. If no named
-   arguments are needed, *kw* may be *NULL*. *args* must not be *NULL*, use an
-   empty tuple if no arguments are needed. Returns the result of the call on
-   success, or *NULL* on failure.  This is the equivalent of the Python expression
-   ``callable_object(*args, **kw)``.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_CallObject(PyObject *callable_object, PyObject *args)
-
-   Call a callable Python object *callable_object*, with arguments given by the
-   tuple *args*.  If no arguments are needed, then *args* may be *NULL*.  Returns
-   the result of the call on success, or *NULL* on failure.  This is the equivalent
-   of the Python expression ``callable_object(*args)``.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_CallFunction(PyObject *callable, char *format, ...)
-
-   Call a callable Python object *callable*, with a variable number of C arguments.
-   The C arguments are described using a :cfunc:`Py_BuildValue` style format
-   string.  The format may be *NULL*, indicating that no arguments are provided.
-   Returns the result of the call on success, or *NULL* on failure.  This is the
-   equivalent of the Python expression ``callable(*args)``. Note that if you only
-   pass :ctype:`PyObject \*` args, :cfunc:`PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs` is a
-   faster alternative.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_CallMethod(PyObject *o, char *method, char *format, ...)
-
-   Call the method named *method* of object *o* with a variable number of C
-   arguments.  The C arguments are described by a :cfunc:`Py_BuildValue` format
-   string that should  produce a tuple.  The format may be *NULL*, indicating that
-   no arguments are provided. Returns the result of the call on success, or *NULL*
-   on failure.  This is the equivalent of the Python expression ``o.method(args)``.
-   Note that if you only pass :ctype:`PyObject \*` args,
-   :cfunc:`PyObject_CallMethodObjArgs` is a faster alternative.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(PyObject *callable, ..., NULL)
-
-   Call a callable Python object *callable*, with a variable number of
-   :ctype:`PyObject\*` arguments.  The arguments are provided as a variable number
-   of parameters followed by *NULL*. Returns the result of the call on success, or
-   *NULL* on failure.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_CallMethodObjArgs(PyObject *o, PyObject *name, ..., NULL)
-
-   Calls a method of the object *o*, where the name of the method is given as a
-   Python string object in *name*.  It is called with a variable number of
-   :ctype:`PyObject\*` arguments.  The arguments are provided as a variable number
-   of parameters followed by *NULL*. Returns the result of the call on success, or
-   *NULL* on failure.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: long PyObject_Hash(PyObject *o)
-
-   .. index:: builtin: hash
-
-   Compute and return the hash value of an object *o*.  On failure, return ``-1``.
-   This is the equivalent of the Python expression ``hash(o)``.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_IsTrue(PyObject *o)
-
-   Returns ``1`` if the object *o* is considered to be true, and ``0`` otherwise.
-   This is equivalent to the Python expression ``not not o``.  On failure, return
-   ``-1``.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_Not(PyObject *o)
-
-   Returns ``0`` if the object *o* is considered to be true, and ``1`` otherwise.
-   This is equivalent to the Python expression ``not o``.  On failure, return
-   ``-1``.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_Type(PyObject *o)
-
-   .. index:: builtin: type
-
-   When *o* is non-*NULL*, returns a type object corresponding to the object type
-   of object *o*. On failure, raises :exc:`SystemError` and returns *NULL*.  This
-   is equivalent to the Python expression ``type(o)``. This function increments the
-   reference count of the return value. There's really no reason to use this
-   function instead of the common expression ``o->ob_type``, which returns a
-   pointer of type :ctype:`PyTypeObject\*`, except when the incremented reference
-   count is needed.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_TypeCheck(PyObject *o, PyTypeObject *type)
-
-   Return true if the object *o* is of type *type* or a subtype of *type*.  Both
-   parameters must be non-*NULL*.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: Py_ssize_t PyObject_Length(PyObject *o)
-               Py_ssize_t PyObject_Size(PyObject *o)
-
-   .. index:: builtin: len
-
-   Return the length of object *o*.  If the object *o* provides either the sequence
-   and mapping protocols, the sequence length is returned.  On error, ``-1`` is
-   returned.  This is the equivalent to the Python expression ``len(o)``.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_GetItem(PyObject *o, PyObject *key)
-
-   Return element of *o* corresponding to the object *key* or *NULL* on failure.
-   This is the equivalent of the Python expression ``o[key]``.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_SetItem(PyObject *o, PyObject *key, PyObject *v)
-
-   Map the object *key* to the value *v*.  Returns ``-1`` on failure.  This is the
-   equivalent of the Python statement ``o[key] = v``.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_DelItem(PyObject *o, PyObject *key)
-
-   Delete the mapping for *key* from *o*.  Returns ``-1`` on failure. This is the
-   equivalent of the Python statement ``del o[key]``.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_Dir(PyObject *o)
-
-   This is equivalent to the Python expression ``dir(o)``, returning a (possibly
-   empty) list of strings appropriate for the object argument, or *NULL* if there
-   was an error.  If the argument is *NULL*, this is like the Python ``dir()``,
-   returning the names of the current locals; in this case, if no execution frame
-   is active then *NULL* is returned but :cfunc:`PyErr_Occurred` will return false.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyObject_GetIter(PyObject *o)
-
-   This is equivalent to the Python expression ``iter(o)``. It returns a new
-   iterator for the object argument, or the object  itself if the object is already
-   an iterator.  Raises :exc:`TypeError` and returns *NULL* if the object cannot be
-   iterated.

-
-   Returns the result of subtracting *o2* from *o1*, or *NULL* on failure.  This is

-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyNumber_TrueDivide(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)
-
-   Return a reasonable approximation for the mathematical value of *o1* divided by
-   *o2*, or *NULL* on failure.  The return value is "approximate" because binary
-   floating point numbers are approximate; it is not possible to represent all real
-   numbers in base two.  This function can return a floating point value when
-   passed two integers.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyNumber_Remainder(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)
-
-   Returns the remainder of dividing *o1* by *o2*, or *NULL* on failure.  This is

-
-   .. index:: builtin: divmod
-
-   See the built-in function :func:`divmod`. Returns *NULL* on failure.  This is

-
-   See the built-in function :func:`pow`. Returns *NULL* on failure.  This is the
-   equivalent of the Python expression ``pow(o1, o2, o3)``, where *o3* is optional.
-   If *o3* is to be ignored, pass :cdata:`Py_None` in its place (passing *NULL* for
-   *o3* would cause an illegal memory access).
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyNumber_Negative(PyObject *o)
-
-   Returns the negation of *o* on success, or *NULL* on failure. This is the
-   equivalent of the Python expression ``-o``.

-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyNumber_Lshift(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)

-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyNumber_InPlaceSubtract(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)

-
-

-   *exc* argument is the type of exception that will be raised (usually
-   :exc:`IndexError` or :exc:`OverflowError`).  If *exc* is *NULL*, then the

-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PySequence_Fast_GET_ITEM(PyObject *o, Py_ssize_t i)

-   gotten by calling :cfunc:`PySequence_Size` on *o*, but
-   :cfunc:`PySequence_Fast_GET_SIZE` is faster because it can assume *o* is a list
-   or tuple.

-
-   Return ``1`` if the mapping object has the key *key* and ``0`` otherwise.  This

-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyMapping_Keys(PyObject *o)
-
-   On success, return a list of the keys in object *o*.  On failure, return *NULL*.

-
-
-.. _iterator:
-
-Iterator Protocol
-=================
-
-There are only a couple of functions specifically for working with iterators.
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyIter_Check(PyObject *o)
-
-   Return true if the object *o* supports the iterator protocol.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyIter_Next(PyObject *o)
-
-   Return the next value from the iteration *o*.  If the object is an iterator,
-   this retrieves the next value from the iteration, and returns *NULL* with no
-   exception set if there are no remaining items.  If the object is not an
-   iterator, :exc:`TypeError` is raised, or if there is an error in retrieving the
-   item, returns *NULL* and passes along the exception.
-
-To write a loop which iterates over an iterator, the C code should look
-something like this::
-
-   PyObject *iterator = PyObject_GetIter(obj);
-   PyObject *item;
-
-   if (iterator == NULL) {
-       /* propagate error */
-   }
-
-   while (item = PyIter_Next(iterator)) {
-       /* do something with item */
-       ...
-       /* release reference when done */
-       Py_DECREF(item);
-   }
-
-   Py_DECREF(iterator);
-
-   if (PyErr_Occurred()) {
-       /* propagate error */
-   }
-   else {
-       /* continue doing useful work */
-   }
-
-

-   the buffer length.  Returns ``-1`` and sets a :exc:`TypeError` on error.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_CheckReadBuffer(PyObject *o)
-
-   Returns ``1`` if *o* supports the single-segment readable buffer interface.
-   Otherwise returns ``0``.
-
-
-.. cfunction:: int PyObject_AsWriteBuffer(PyObject *obj, void **buffer, Py_ssize_t *buffer_len)
-
-   Returns a pointer to a writable memory location.  The *obj* argument must
-   support the single-segment, character buffer interface.  On success, returns
-   ``0``, sets *buffer* to the memory location and *buffer_len* to the buffer
-   length.  Returns ``-1`` and sets a :exc:`TypeError` on error.
