CPython A Complete Guide to CPython's Architecture and Performance

The book takes readers from basic concepts to complex details with a systematic breakdown of core components. It covers everything from CPython's data structures like PyObject and PyTypeObject to object lifecycle management, giving insight into memory allocation and object reference counting. Each chapter illustrates CPython's architecture, such as Python's "everything is an object" philosophy, list handling, string manipulation, and dictionary operations. Readers will explore Python's REPL modifications, string internals, and custom type creation with practical examples, like crafting a "backflipping" PyKitty_Type. Detailed sections on Python's virtual machine operations, bytecode generation, and exception handling enrich readers' understanding of how Python code is parsed, compiled, and executed.
This book is a thorough guide for readers who want to go beyond basic Python use and understand how it works internally. Covering complex concepts like generators, iterators, descriptors, and metaclasses, this book equips readers with a thorough grasp of Python's performance optimization and design complexities.
