.. data:: api_version

The C API version for this interpreter. Programmers may find this useful when
debugging version conflicts between Python and extension modules.
The C API version, equivalent to the C macro :c:macro:`PYTHON_API_VERSION`.
Defined for backwards compatibility.

Currently, this constant is not updated in new Python versions, and is not
useful for versioning. This may change in the future.
