augmenting

Test for augmenting pxd files

This project is just for me to test how to use cython to generate an extension from a pure python module with the use of an augmenting pxd file as described here: http://docs.cython.org/src/tutorial/pure.html#augmenting-pxd

I would like to be able to do this as it seems like a good way to maintain a pure python module along with a cython accelerated version.

how to use

Download and run::

$ python setup.py build_ext --inplace
$ python test.py

The output I get::

$ python test.py
