Cython's new pure Python syntax: Faster Python made easier

The video explores the Cython project, which compiles Python code to C for speed improvements. It introduces Cython's new syntax, making it more accessible to Python users. The video compares traditional Cython syntax with the new pure Python mode, highlighting its advantages like compatibility with Python tools. A demonstration using Conway's Game of Life shows the performance benefits of compiling Python code with Cython. The video concludes by emphasizing the potential of Cython's pure Python mode for incremental code optimization.
