Python Can Now Call Mojo

Python's performance limitations can be addressed by calling functions written in Mojo, a new high-performance systems language. Developed for AI workloads, Mojo provides C-like speed with a Python-like syntax by using an LLVM/MLIR-based compiler. The integration requires creating bindings in the Mojo code using a PythonModuleBuilder, which exposes the functions to a Python environment. To demonstrate the performance gains, the article benchmarks three methods for calculating a Mandelbrot set: pure Python, vectorized NumPy, and a hybrid Python-Mojo implementation.
