Barrier object in Python is used to synchronize the execution of multiple threads. When a thread reaches a barrier point, it calls the wait() function, and the barrier keeps track of the number of threads that have reached the barrier. When the number of threads that have reached the barrier is equal to the number […]

A Condition object in Python is a synchronization object that allows multiple threads to wait for a specific condition to be met. It is similar to a Lock, but it will enable you to synchronize threads not only on the acquisition of the lock, but also on the release of the lock. To better understand […]

Timer objects are used to schedule a function to be executed at a certain time in the future. The timer is started with a specified number of seconds to wait before executing the function, but the actual time when the function is executed will depend on the availability of system resources and the scheduling of […]

RLock (re-entrant lock) is a type of lock that allows the holder of the lock to acquire it multiple times without causing a deadlock. This can be useful in situations where a thread needs to acquire the same lock multiple times while performing some operation. Note: If a code can be safely called again, it […]

What is a Lock Object? In Python, a threading.Lock object is used to synchronize the execution of threads. It can protect critical sections of code that should not be executed concurrently. When a thread acquires a lock, it blocks other threads from entering the critical section until it is released. Syntax for creating a Lock […]

The Thread class in Python’s threading module is used to create and manage threads. We can extend this class to create a Thread or create a Thread class object directly and pass a member function from another class. There are two methods for creating the Thread object and specifying the activity to be carried out: […]

Python threading, as we saw in the previous tutorial, allows us to run different parts of our program concurrently, which can simplify our design. Functions of threading Module: Following are some of the Functions: Function Description active_count() Return the number of active Thread objects. The count returned is the same as the length of the list […]

Let’s look at Python threads first before presenting the idea of multithreading. Threads: Threads are quick processes (smaller versions of larger processes) that can operate concurrently and in parallel with one another, with each thread capable of carrying out a specific task. Processes frequently house threads. Within a single process, several threads may exist. Threads share […]
