CPython source code

Toggle table of contents sidebar

This section gives an overview of CPython’s code structure and provides a summary of file locations for modules and built-ins.

For a Python module, the typical layout is:

• Lib/<module>.py

• Modules/_<module>.c (if there’s also a C accelerator module)

• Lib/test/test_<module>.py

• Doc/library/<module>.rst

For an extension module, the typical layout is:

• Modules/<module>module.c

• Lib/test/test_<module>.py

• Doc/library/<module>.rst

For Built-in Types, the typical layout is:

• Objects/<builtin>object.c

• Lib/test/test_<builtin>.py

• Doc/library/stdtypes.rst

For Built-in Functions, the typical layout is:

• Python/bltinmodule.c

• Lib/test/test_builtin.py

• Doc/library/functions.rst

Some exceptions to these layouts are:

• built-in type int is at Objects/longobject.c

• built-in type str is at Objects/unicodeobject.c

• built-in module sys is at Python/sysmodule.c

• built-in module marshal is at Python/marshal.c

• Windows-only module winreg is at PC/winreg.c

The CPython code base is constantly changing and evolving. Here’s a sample of references about CPython’s architecture aimed at building your understanding of CPython internals and its evolution:
