<p>The functions in this chapter will let you execute Python source code given in a
file or a buffer, but they will not let you interact in a more detailed way with
the interpreter.</p>
<p>Several of these functions accept a start symbol from the grammar as a
parameter. The available start symbols are <a class="reference internal" href="#c.Py_eval_input" title="Py_eval_input"><code class="xref c c-data docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Py_eval_input</span></code></a>,
<a class="reference internal" href="#c.Py_file_input" title="Py_file_input"><code class="xref c c-data docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Py_file_input</span></code></a>, and <a class="reference internal" href="#c.Py_single_input" title="Py_single_input"><code class="xref c c-data docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Py_single_input</span></code></a>. These are described
following the functions which accept them as parameters.</p>
<p>Note also that several of these functions take <span class="c-expr sig sig-inline c"><span class="n">FILE</span><span class="p">*</span></span> parameters. One
particular issue which needs to be handled carefully is that the <code class="xref c c-type docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">FILE</span></code>
structure for different C libraries can be different and incompatible. Under
Windows (at least), it is possible for dynamically linked extensions to actually
use different libraries, so care should be taken that <span class="c-expr sig sig-inline c"><span class="n">FILE</span><span class="p">*</span></span> parameters
are only passed to these functions if it is certain that they were created by
the same library that the Python runtime is using.</p>
