If your C# source file contains something along the lines of:
    
    namespace MyLib { public class MyClass { ... } }

and, say, is compiled to a DLL called A_LIB.DLL and placed
in your current directory, then in python.net it would be:

    from CLR.System.Reflection import Assembly
    a = Assembly.LoadWithPartialName("A_LIB")
    from CLR.MyLib import MyClass
