Code objects are a low-level detail of the CPython implementation. Each one represents a chunk of executable code that hasn’t yet been bound into a function.

type.PyCode_GetNumFree
(PyCodeObject *co)PyCode_New
(int argcount, int kwonlyargcount, int nlocals, int stacksize, int flags, PyObject *code, PyObject *consts, PyObject *names, PyObject *varnames, PyObject *freevars, PyObject *cellvars, PyObject *filename, PyObject *name, int firstlineno, PyObject *lnotab)Return value: New reference.
Return a new code object. If you need a dummy code object to create a frame,
use PyCode_NewEmpty()
instead. Calling PyCode_New()
directly
can bind you to a precise Python version since the definition of the bytecode
changes often.
PyCode_NewWithPosOnlyArgs
(int argcount, int posonlyargcount, int kwonlyargcount, int nlocals, int stacksize, int flags, PyObject *code, PyObject *consts, PyObject *names, PyObject *varnames, PyObject *freevars, PyObject *cellvars, PyObject *filename, PyObject *name, int firstlineno, PyObject *lnotab)Return value: New reference.
Similar to PyCode_New()
, but with an extra “posonlyargcount” for positional-only arguments.
New in version 3.8.
PyCode_NewEmpty
(const char *filename, const char *funcname, int firstlineno)Return value: New reference.
Return a new empty code object with the specified filename,
function name, and first line number. It is illegal to
exec()
or eval()
the resulting code object.
