+Ordered Dictionaries
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Python's C API provides interface for :class:`collections.OrderedDict` from C.
+Since Python 3.7, dictionaries are ordered by default, so there is usually
+little need for these functions; prefer ``PyDict*`` where possible.
+
+
+.. c:var:: PyTypeObject PyODict_Type
+
+   Type object for ordered dictionaries. This is the same object as
+   :class:`collections.OrderedDict` in the Python layer.
+
+
+.. c:function:: int PyODict_Check(PyObject *od)
+
+   Return true if *od* is an ordered dictionary object or an instance of a
+   subtype of the :class:`~collections.OrderedDict` type.  This function
+   always succeeds.
+
+
+.. c:function:: int PyODict_CheckExact(PyObject *od)
+
+   Return true if *od* is an ordered dictionary object, but not an instance of
+   a subtype of the :class:`~collections.OrderedDict` type.
+   This function always succeeds.
+
+
+.. c:var:: PyTypeObject PyODictKeys_Type
+
+   Analogous to :c:type:`PyDictKeys_Type` for ordered dictionaries.
+
+
+.. c:var:: PyTypeObject PyODictValues_Type
+
+   Analogous to :c:type:`PyDictValues_Type` for ordered dictionaries.
+
+
+.. c:var:: PyTypeObject PyODictItems_Type
+
+   Analogous to :c:type:`PyDictItems_Type` for ordered dictionaries.
+
+
+.. c:function:: PyObject *PyODict_New(void)
+
+   Return a new empty ordered dictionary, or ``NULL`` on failure.
+
+   This is analogous to :c:func:`PyDict_New`.
+
+
+.. c:function:: int PyODict_SetItem(PyObject *od, PyObject *key, PyObject *value)
+
+   Insert *value* into the ordered dictionary *od* with a key of *key*.
+   Return ``0`` on success or ``-1`` with an exception set on failure.
+
+   This is analogous to :c:func:`PyDict_SetItem`.
+
+
+.. c:function:: int PyODict_DelItem(PyObject *od, PyObject *key)
+
+   Remove the entry in the ordered dictionary *od* with key *key*.
+   Return ``0`` on success or ``-1`` with an exception set on failure.
+
+   This is analogous to :c:func:`PyDict_DelItem`.
+
+
+These are :term:`soft deprecated` aliases to ``PyDict`` APIs:
+
+
+.. list-table::
+   :widths: auto
+   :header-rows: 1

+   * * ``PyODict``

+     * :c:func:`PyDict_Contains`
+   * * .. c:macro:: PyODict_Size(od)
+     * :c:func:`PyDict_Size`
+   * * .. c:macro:: PyODict_SIZE(od)
+     * :c:func:`PyDict_GET_SIZE`
