Using Python's print function in C++
====================================
The usual way to write output in C++ is using ``std::cout`` while in Python one
would use ``print``. Since these methods use different buffers, mixing them can
lead to output order issues. To resolve this, pybind11 modules can use the
:func:`py::print` function which writes to Python's ``sys.stdout`` for consistency.
Python's ``print`` function is replicated in the C++ API including optional
keyword arguments ``sep``, ``end``, ``file``, ``flush``. Everything works as
expected in Python:
.. code-block:: cpp
py::print(1, 2.0, "three"); // 1 2.0 three
py::print(1, 2.0, "three", "sep"_a="-"); // 1-2.0-three
auto args = py::make_tuple("unpacked", true);
py::print("->", *args, "end"_a="<-"); // -> unpacked True <-
Evaluating Python expressions from strings and files
====================================================
pybind11 provides the :func:`eval` and :func:`eval_file` functions to evaluate
Python expressions and statements. The following example illustrates how they
can be used.
Both functions accept a template parameter that describes how the argument
should be interpreted. Possible choices include ``eval_expr`` (isolated
expression), ``eval_single_statement`` (a single statement, return value is
always ``none``), and ``eval_statements`` (sequence of statements, return value
is always ``none``).
.. code-block:: cpp
// At beginning of file
#include <pybind11/eval.h>
...
// Evaluate in scope of main module
py::object scope = py::module::import("__main__").attr("__dict__");
// Evaluate an isolated expression
int result = py::eval("my_variable + 10", scope).cast<int>();
// Evaluate a sequence of statements
py::eval<py::eval_statements>(
"print('Hello')\n"
"print('world!');",
scope);
// Evaluate the statements in an separate Python file on disk
py::eval_file("script.py", scope);
