Idiomatic way to do list/dict in Cython?

Cython now has template support, and comes with declarations for some of the STL containers.

See http://docs.cython.org/src/userguide/wrapping_CPlusPlus.html#standard-library

Here’s the example they give:

from libcpp.vector cimport vector

cdef vector[int] vect
cdef int i
for i in range(10):
    vect.push_back(i)
for i in range(10):
    print vect[i]
