Python Embedding

[jibarra]

I want to call the nelderMead Python function from C, and pass in the keyword rosen that I've imported from from scipy.optimize import minimize, rosen, rosen_der from C into the nelderMead function. The problem is whenever is pass in a string or PyObject, python reads it as a type string but rosen is a type class. So the rosen parameter does not get invoked as a class but as a string.

C Code below:
//https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.optimize.minimize.html

#include</usr/include/python3.6m/Python.h>


int main(){

PyObject *pName,*pFunc, *pValue, *pModule, *pOpt;

Py_Initialize();

//Access file in local folder where C file is stored
PyRun_SimpleString("import sys");
PyRun_SimpleString("sys.path.append(\".\")");

//Convert String to PyObject
pName = PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefault("Rosenbrock_Function");
pModule = PyImport_Import(pName);

Py_DECREF(pName);

if(pModule){
pFunc = PyObject_GetAttrString(pModule,"nelderMead");
Py_DECREF(pModule);
}
pOpt = PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefault("rosen");

pValue = PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(pFunc,pOpt,NULL);

Py_FinalizeEx();
return 0;
}
