This is a doubt about cpython implementation and the various built in types in python












0















I have gone through the cpython library in github. It has the source code for implementing the basic stuffs that we use in python like (dict,tuple,list, etc ie the various "types" and much more).
And then I saw questions here in stackoverflow mentioning that all these 'types' are implemented as classes (which inherit from object) in the python build-ins. so that itself is the implementation right? then why do we need the cpython based implementations of the same stuffs in c programming language?
PS: this might be a redundant question, i am not sure, but still a response is extremely appreciated. Thanks
