Python Threading Jump-Start: Develop Concurrent IO-bound Programs And Work With The GIL (Python Concurrency Jump-Start Series)

by Jason Brownlee (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars (10)
Unlock concurrency with Python threads
(and run 100s or 1,000s of tasks simultaneously)

The threading module provides easy-to-use thread-based concurrency in Python. Unlike Python multiprocessing, the threading module is limited by the infamous Global Interpreter Lock (GIL).

Critically, the GIL is released when performing blocking I/O. Additionally, threads can share memory making them perfectly suited to I/O-bound tasks such as reading and writing from files and socket connections.

This is the API you need to use to make your code run faster.

Introducing: "Python Threading Jump-Start". A new book designed to teach you the threading module in Python, super fast!

You will get a rapid-paced, 7-part course to get you started and make you awesome at using the threading API.

Each of the 7 lessons was carefully designed to teach one critical aspect of the threading module, with explanations, code snippets, and worked examples.

You will discover:
  • How to choose tasks that are well suited to threads.
  • How to create and run new threads.
  • How to locate and query running threads.
  • How to use locks, semaphores, barriers, and more.
  • How to share data between threads using queues.
  • How to execute ad hoc tasks with reusable worker threads.
  • How to gracefully stop and forcefully kill threads.

Each lesson ends with an exercise for you to complete to confirm you understand the topic, a summary of what was learned, and links for further reading if you want to go deeper.

Stop copy-pasting code from StackOverflow answers.

Learn Python concurrency correctly, step-by-step.
