# Number Protocol

int `PyNumber_Check`(PyObject *o)

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

PyObject* `PyNumber_Add`(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)
  Return value: New reference.

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

PyObject* `PyNumber_Subtract`(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)
  Return value: New reference.

  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.

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

PyObject* `PyNumber_FloorDivide`(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)
  Return value: New reference.

  Return the floor of o1 divided by o2, or NULL on failure. This is equivalent to the “classic” division of integers.

PyObject* `PyNumber_TrueDivide`(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)
  Return value: New reference.

  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.

  New in version 2.2.

PyObject* `PyNumber_Remainder`(PyObject *o1, PyObject *o2)
  Return value: New reference.

int `PyNumber_Coerce`(PyObject **p1, PyObject **p2)

  This function takes the addresses of two variables of type `PyObject*`. If the objects pointed to by `*p1` and `*p2` have the same type, increment their reference count and return `0` (success). If the objects can be converted to a common numeric type, replace `*p1` and `*p2` by their converted value (with ‘new’ reference counts), and return `0`. If no conversion is possible, or if some other error occurs, return `-1` (failure) and don’t increment the reference counts. The call `PyNumber_Coerce(&o1, &o2)` is equivalent to the Python statement `o1, o2 = coerce(o1, o2)`.

int `PyNumber_CoerceEx`(PyObject **p1, PyObject **p2)

  This function is similar to `PyNumber_Coerce()`, except that it returns `1` when the conversion is not possible and when no error is raised. Reference counts are still not increased in this case.

PyObject* `PyNumber_Int`(PyObject *o)
  Return value: New reference.

  Returns the o converted to an integer object on success, or NULL on failure. If the argument is outside the integer range a long object will be returned instead. This is the equivalent of the Python expression `int(o)`.

PyObject* `PyNumber_Long`(PyObject *o)
  Return value: New reference.

  Returns the o converted to a long integer object on success, or NULL on failure. This is the equivalent of the Python expression `long(o)`.

PyObject* `PyNumber_Float`(PyObject *o)
  Return value: New reference.

  Returns the o converted to a float object on success, or NULL on failure. This is the equivalent of the Python expression `float(o)`.

PyObject* `PyNumber_Index`(PyObject *o)

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

  New in version 2.5.

PyObject* `PyNumber_ToBase`(PyObject *n, int base)

  Returns the integer n converted to base as a string with a base marker of `'0b'`, `'0o'`, or `'0x'` if applicable. When base is not 2, 8, 10, or 16, the format is `'x#num'` where x is the base. If n is not an int object, it is converted with `PyNumber_Index()` first.

  New in version 2.6.

Py_ssize_t `PyNumber_AsSsize_t`(PyObject *o, PyObject *exc)

  Returns o converted to a Py_ssize_t value if o can be interpreted as an integer. If o can be converted to a Python int or long 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.

  New in version 2.5.

int `PyIndex_Check`(PyObject *o)

  Returns `1` if o is an index integer (has the nb_index slot of the tp_as_number structure filled in), and `0` otherwise.
