Description
When I read PEP7 and check Cpython source code, I found a deficiency that in https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0007/#code-lay-out.
In this section, document said that
For external functions and variables, we always have a declaration in an appropriate header file in the "Include" directory, which uses the PyAPI_FUNC() macro, like this: PyAPI_FUNC(PyObject *) PyObject_Repr(PyObject *);
but when i check python 3.7.12+ and python 2.7.13, external variables actually uses the PyAPI_DATA() macro, like this:
PyAPI_DATA(PyTypeObject) PySuper_Type; /* built-in 'super' */
This may confuse beginners, could you please add this info in PEP7?
