 ``cpdef`` - It's Both
 ----------------------------
-``cpdef`` functions combine both ``def`` and ``cdef`` by creating two functions; a ``cdef`` for C types and a ``def`` fr Python types. This exploits early binding so that ``cpdef`` functions may be as fast as possible when using C fundamental types (by using ``cdef``). ``cpdef`` functions use dynamic binding when passed Python objects and this might much slower, perhaps as slow as ``def`` declared functions.
