Abstract
Inline::C 1 provides a new way to write Perl modules with C. Instead of separating out the Perl and C parts of your module into different files, you can include them both in the same file. Instead of learning a new programming language (XS), you can create C functions in pure C. If this sounds pretty great, it is! My prediction is that the majority of new C modules will be written using Inline::C. It’s easy, it works, and what more could you ask for?
