c++ will be way more powerful and fast, so no not really. pythons strength is how quick it is to create prototypes. no doubt its possible to use python for powerful things, especially math, but c++ is one of the best there is in regards to power and performance. there is a hybrid called cpython (edit: cython) that aims to write more powerful python code with c, so that could be worth a look if you must use python

CPython is actually the implementation of Python written in C, not a hybrid. CPython is the most common Python found. You must be talking about the Cython library
