How can I use CFFI with Rust?

How can I use CFFI with Rust?

You can use CFFI to call Rust functions from Python by creating a shared library in Rust and then using CFFI to load it.

What are the steps to create a shared library in Rust?

First, you need to define your Rust functions with the #[no_mangle] attribute, then compile your Rust code to a shared library using cargo build --release.

How do I call these Rust functions from Python using CFFI?

In Python, you can use CFFI's FFI() to load the shared library and define the function signatures to call your Rust functions.

Are there any performance considerations I should be aware of?

Yes, calling Rust from Python can introduce overhead, so it's best to minimize the number of calls and pass large data structures efficiently.
