Python is one of the most popular programming languages today. However, one big weakness is that Python has no real parallelization capabilities. Multiprocessing is a way to implement virtual parallelization with Python. In this post we’ll cover: What is Multiprocessing? The Python Multiprocessing Library Running two Functions in parallel Multiprocessing Functions with Arguments Multiprocessing forContinue reading “An Overview of Multiprocessing in Python”

Run Multiple Functions in Parallel in Python 3
One of Python’s main weaknesses is its inability to have true parallelization due to the Global Interpreter Lock. However, some functions can still virtually run in parallel. Python allows this with two different concepts: multithreading and multiprocessing. In this post we’ll go over how to run two functions virtually in parallel with multiprocessing. Overview ofContinue reading “Run Multiple Functions in Parallel in Python 3”
