PoC: Integrating Rust in Python

A toy example showing how to run Rust code in Python for speed and progress.

Requirements

• Python 3.6+
• Rust 1.44+
• Cargo (bundled with Rust)

Setup

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate # or source .venv/bin/activate.fish
pip install maturin
maturin develop --release # Pass --release flag to Cargo for speedups
python run.py # Runs timed Monty Hall simulations in Python and Rust

Run cargo doc --open to peruse the documentation. Run cargo test to run the doctests embedded in the documentation.

Credits

PyO3 which provides macros for exposing Rust code to Python and Maturin which handles the scaffolding.

Python implementation adapted from vaetas/monty_hall.py.
