Python Threading Interview Questions


Book Description

How well do you know Python threads? The threading module provides thread-based concurrency in Python and few developers know about it, let alone, how to use it well. The main reason is because it is wily thought that Python does not support threads because of the Global Interpreter Lock (GIL). This is false. In fact, threads remain the best approach to achieve concurrency for IO-bound tasks. * Do you know how to start a thread? * Do you know how to use mutex locks with Python threads? * Do you know how to identify a race condition? Discover 120 interview questions on Python threading. * Study the questions and answers and improve your skill. * Test yourself to see what you really know, and what you don't. * Select questions to interview developers on a new role. Prepare for an interview or test your Python threading skills today.




Python Multiprocessing Interview Questions


Book Description

How well do you know Python multiprocessing? The multiprocessing module provides process-based concurrency in Python and few developers know about it, let alone, how to use it well. The main reason is because it is widely thought that Python does not fully support concurrency. This is false. In fact, processes provide the best path to full parallelism in Python for CPU-bound tasks. * Do you know how to start a new process? * Do you know how to use mutex locks with Python processes? * Do you know how to use a manager or a pool? Discover 180+ interview questions on Python multiprocessing. * Study the questions and answers and improve your skill. * Test yourself to see what you really know, and what you don't. * Select questions to interview developers on a new role. Prepare for an interview or test your Python multiprocessing skills today.




Python Concurrent Futures Interview Questions


Book Description

How well do you know the ThreadPoolExecutor and ProcessPoolExecutor in Python? The concurrent.futures module provides the ability to launch parallel and concurrent tasks in Python using thread and process-based concurrency. Importantly, the ThreadPoolExecutor and ProcessPoolExecutor offer the same modern interface with asynchronous tasks, Future objects, and the ability to wait on groups of tasks. The concurrent.futures module with the ThreadPoolExecutor and ProcessPoolExecutor classes offers the best way to execute ad hoc tasks concurrently in Python, and few developers know about it, let alone how to use it well. * Do you know how to handle task results in the order tasks finish? * Do you know how to wait for the first task to fail? * Do you know how many workers are created by default? Discover 130+ interview questions and their answers on the concurrent.futures module. * Study the questions and answers and improve your skill. * Test yourself to see what you really know, and what you don't. * Select questions to interview developers on a new role. Prepare for an interview or test your ThreadPoolExecutor and ProcessPoolExecutor skills in Python today.

Python Asyncio Interview Questions


Book Description

How well do you know asyncio in Python? Python includes changes to the language itself to support coroutines as first-class objects and the asyncio module provides an API for developing asynchronous programs. Asyncio is challenging to learn for beginners and challenging to use for experts and beginners alike. Asynchronous programming is an alternative paradigm that is quite different from the classical imperative and object-oriented programming paradigms that we are useful. * Do you know how to cancel an asynchronous task? * Do you know how to execute a list of coroutines concurrently? * Do you know how to execute blocking calls in an asyncio program? Discover 150+ interview questions and their answers on Python asyncio. * Study the questions and answers and improve your skill. * Test yourself to see what you really know, and what you don't. * Select questions to interview developers on a new role.
