For each such variable, a cell object is created to store the value; the local variables of each stack frame that references the value contains a reference to the cells from outer scopes which also use that variable. When the value is accessed, the value contained in the cell is used instead of the cell object itself. This de-referencing of the cell object requires support from the generated byte-code; these are not automatically de-referenced when accessed. Cell objects are not likely to be useful elsewhere.</p> <dl class="type"> <dt id="c.PyCellObject"> <code class="descname">PyCellObject</code><a class="headerlink" href="#c.PyCellObject" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt> <dd><p>The C structure used for cell objects.</p> </dd></dl> <dl class="var"> <dt id="c.PyCell_Type"> <a class="reference internal" href="type.html#c.PyTypeObject" title="PyTypeObject">PyTypeObject</a> <code class="descname">PyCell_Type</code><a class="headerlink" href="#c.PyCell_Type" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt> <dd><p>The type object corresponding to cell objects.</p> </dd></dl> <dl class="function"> <dt id="c.PyCell_Check"> int <code class="descname">PyCell_Check</code><span class="sig-paren">(</span>ob<span class="sig-paren">)</span><a class="headerlink" href="#c.PyCell_Check" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt> <dd><p>Return true if <em>ob</em> is a cell object; <em>ob</em> must not be <em>NULL</em>.</p> </dd></dl> <dl class="function"> <dt id="c.PyCell_New"> <a class="reference internal" href="structures.html#c.PyObject" title="PyObject">PyObject</a>* <code class="descname">PyCell_New</code><span class="sig-paren">(</span><a class="reference internal" href="structures.html#c.PyObject" title="PyObject">PyObject</a><em> *ob</em><span class="sig-paren">)</span><a class="headerlink" href="#c.PyCell_New" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt> <dd><em class="refcount">Return value: New reference.</em><p>Create and return a new cell object containing the value <em>ob</em>.
