    OpenAI Codex Python to C++ Code Generator



Your Python Code is too slow? 🐌 

You want to speed it up but forgot how to code in C++? ⌨

Convert your Python script to C++ Code using OpenAI Codex.

## How it works

Reads a Python file and creates an input prompt which is then fed to OpenAI Codex to generate corresponding C++ code. The generated 

code is getting compiled using g++ and if compilation is successful the executable is saved.

To generate your own files you need to get access to the Codex API (https://openai.com/blog/openai-codex/).

## Installation

```bash

git clone https://github.com/alxschwrz/codex_py2cpp.git

cd codex_py2cpp

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

```

## Run example

Reads the file "simpleScript.py", and feeds the corresponding input prompt to OpenAI Codex. Compilable solutions 

are stored in the form of .cpp and .exe files.

```

python3 python2cppconverter.py

```

If the generated C++ code got compiled, test it with

```

./simpleScript.exe

```

You hopefully get the same output as when running

```

python3 simpleScript.py

```

Check how much faster you are now ...

```

time ./simpleScript.exe

time python3 simpleScript.py

```

### Example Code Generation:

[In]: Python Snippet

[Out]: How the CODEX conversion might look like

```python

def add_something(x, y):

    print("casually adding some stuff together")

    z = x + y

    return z

if __name__ == "__main__":

    print('Okay, lets go')

    print(add_something(5, 2))

```

```cpp

// C++ Code generated from Python Code: 

#include 

using namespace std;

int add_something(int x, int y) {

    cout << "casually adding some stuff together" << endl;

    int z = x + y;

    return z;

}

int main() {

    cout << "Okay, lets go" << endl;

    cout << add_something(5, 2) << endl;

    return 0;

}

```

Please test your generated code before usage. This does not produce robust code conversions, but is intended to experiment with codex. [WIP]
