Number Protocol
***************

int PyNumber_Check(PyObject *o)
    * Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Returns "1" if the object *o* provides numeric protocols, and false
   otherwise. This function always succeeds.

   Cambiato nella versione 3.8: Returns "1" if *o* is an index
   integer.

PyObject *PyNumber_Add(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)
    *Return value: New reference.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Returns the result of adding *o1* and *o2*, or "NULL" on failure.
   This is the equivalent of the Python expression "o1 + o2".

    *Return value: New reference.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Returns the result of subtracting *o2* from *o1*, or "NULL" on
   failure.  This is the equivalent of the Python expression "o1 -
   o2".

PyObject *PyNumber_Multiply(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)
    *Return value: New reference.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Returns the result of multiplying *o1* and *o2*, or "NULL" on
   failure.  This is the equivalent of the Python expression "o1 *

   version 3.7.*

   Returns the result of matrix multiplication on *o1* and *o2*, or
   "NULL" on failure.  This is the equivalent of the Python expression

PyObject *PyNumber_FloorDivide(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)
    *Return value: New reference.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Return the floor of *o1* divided by *o2*, or "NULL" on failure.

    *Return value: New reference.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Return a reasonable approximation for the mathematical value of
   *o1* divided by *o2*, or "NULL" on failure.  The return value is
   "approximate" because binary floating point numbers are
   approximate; it is not possible to represent all real numbers in
   base two.  This function can return a floating point value when
   passed two integers.  This is the equivalent of the Python
   expression "o1 / o2".

PyObject *PyNumber_Remainder(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)
    *Return value: New reference.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   access).

PyObject *PyNumber_Negative(PyObject *o)
    *Return value: New reference.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Returns the negation of *o* on success, or "NULL" on failure. This
   is the equivalent of the Python expression "-o".

    *Return value: New reference.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Returns the "bitwise exclusive or" of *o1* by *o2* on success, or

   operation is done *in-place* when *o1* supports it.  This is the
   equivalent of the Python statement "o1 **= o2" when o3 is
   "Py_None", or an in-place variant of "pow(o1, o2, o3)" otherwise.

   Returns the *o* converted to a Python int on success or "NULL" with
   a "TypeError" exception raised on failure.

   Cambiato nella versione 3.10: The result always has exact type
   "int".  Previously, the result could have been an instance of a
   subclass of "int".

PyObject *PyNumber_ToBase(PyObject *n, int base)
    *Return value: New reference.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Returns the integer *n* converted to base *base* as a string.  The
   *base* argument must be one of 2, 8, 10, or 16.  For base 2, 8, or
   16, the returned string is prefixed with a base marker of "'0b'",
   "'0o'", or "'0x'", respectively.  If *n* is not a Python int, it is
   converted with "PyNumber_Index()" first.

Py_ssize_t PyNumber_AsSsize_t(PyObject *o, PyObject *exc)
    * Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Returns *o* converted to a "Py_ssize_t" value if *o* can be
   interpreted as an integer.  If the call fails, an exception is
   raised and "-1" is returned.

   If *o* can be converted to a Python int but the attempt to convert
   to a "Py_ssize_t" value would raise an "OverflowError", then the
   *exc* argument is the type of exception that will be raised
   (usually "IndexError" or "OverflowError").  If *exc* is "NULL",
   then the exception is cleared and the value is clipped to
   "PY_SSIZE_T_MIN" for a negative integer or "PY_SSIZE_T_MAX" for a
   positive integer.

int PyIndex_Check(PyObject *o)
    * Part of the Stable ABI since version 3.8.*

   Returns "1" if *o* is an index integer (has the "nb_index" slot of
   the "tp_as_number" structure filled in), and "0" otherwise. This
   function always succeeds.
