title: C++ to simpler language (Python, Lua, etc) converter?
body: <p>I know Python and I've come across a small C++ source file I would like to convert to Python. But the C++ code is too complex for me to understand without learning the language.</p>
  
  <p>So I was wondering if there is a tool that does the opposite of what many people want: convert C++ code to Python, or another simpler language I could understand.
  I know these tools work on very simple code and hardly do a perfect job even then, but the code I have <em>is</em> pretty small and simple.</p>
  
  <p>I have found "ctopy", but there is no usage example, if I just pass a .cpp file to it, it just hangs, no error message or anything.
  And maybe it won't work for C++ at all.
