Description: PY_VERSION_HEX should be used when comparing version numbers, for example PY_VERSION_HEX >= 0x03080000. Avoid PY_MAJOR_VERSION >= 3 && PY_MINOR_VERSION >= 8 because that is true for 3.8-3.12, but also for 4.8-4.12 and so on. This is already warned in patchlevel.h where PY_VERSION_HEX is defined: cpython/Include/patchlevel.h Lines 29 to 35 in 2e279e8 /* Version as a single 4-byte hex number, e.g. 0x010502B2 == 1.5.2b2. Use this for numeric comparisons, e.g. #if PY_VERSION_HEX >= ... */ #define PY_VERSION_HEX ((PY_MAJOR_VERSION << 24) | \ (PY_MINOR_VERSION << 16) | \ (PY_MICRO_VERSION << 8) | \ (PY_RELEASE_LEVEL << 4) | \ (PY_RELEASE_SERIAL << 0)) It's a bit hidden there, let's hoist it into docs in apiabiversion.rst for visibilty.
