Embedding Python in Borland C++ Application

[bigjoe615 at my-deja.com]

I have been able to compile and link a C++
(Borland C++ Builder 4.0) with Python 1.5.2.

I can use the following code to evaluate simple
arithmetic expressions (like 9*9):

...
   PyObject *s;
   PyObject *PyGlobal=PyDict_New();
   AnsiString exp=mFormulaTextDBMemo->Text;
//   struct _node*pn=PyParser_SimpleParseString
(exp.c_str(),Py_single_input) ;
   s=PyRun_String(exp.c_str
(),eval_input,PyGlobal,PyGlobal);
   total=PyInt_AsLong(s);
   ShowMessage("Value of expression:"+FloatToStr
(total));
...

I am trying to understand how to use built in
functions like sqrt, pow, etc.   PyRun_String
does not seem to work.  How would I do this?
