used to set an object type and size.

The Python C API
================

The C API is divided into three sections:

1. ``Include/``: Limited API
2. ``Include/cpython/``: CPython implementation details
3. ``Include/internal/``: The internal API

Information on changing the C API is available `in the developer guide`_
