Python 3 Runner

  1. It contains the simple Python code which prints the text “Hello World!”. In order to execute the Python code, you have to open the ‘run’ menu and press the ‘Run Module’ option. You can also use the keyboard shortcut ‘F5’ to run the Python code file. A new shell window will open which contains the output of the Python code. Create your own file and execute the Python code using this simple method using Python.
  2. Python code does not run properly - returning 'python' whenever I type python. Im using windows 10, installed Python 3.9. Set the Environment path for it. But as you can see below, python -V only returns 'Python'. When I run a python script, it also returns 'Python'. Please help what I have done wrong here.
  3. Python 3 - Multithreaded Programming. Running several threads is similar to running several different programs concurrently, but with the following benefits −. Multiple threads within a process share the same data space with the main thread and can therefore share information or communicate with each other more easily than if they were.

Running several threads is similar to running several different programs concurrently, but with the following benefits −

  • Multiple threads within a process share the same data space with the main thread and can therefore share information or communicate with each other more easily than if they were separate processes.

  • Threads are sometimes called light-weight processes and they do not require much memory overhead; they are cheaper than processes.

A thread has a beginning, an execution sequence, and a conclusion. It has an instruction pointer that keeps track of where within its context is it currently running.

  • It can be pre-empted (interrupted).

  • It can temporarily be put on hold (also known as sleeping) while other threads are running - this is called yielding.

There are two different kind of threads −

  • kernel thread
  • user thread

Kernel Threads are a part of the operating system, while the User-space threads are not implemented in the kernel.

There are two modules which support the usage of threads in Python3 −

  • _thread
  • threading

The thread module has been 'deprecated' for quite a long time. Users are encouraged to use the threading module instead. Hence, in Python 3, the module 'thread' is not available anymore. However, it has been renamed to '_thread' for backwards compatibilities in Python3.

Starting a New Thread

To spawn another thread, you need to call the following method available in the thread module −

This method call enables a fast and efficient way to create new threads in both Linux and Windows.

The method call returns immediately and the child thread starts and calls function with the passed list of args. When the function returns, the thread terminates.

Here, args is a tuple of arguments; use an empty tuple to call function without passing any arguments. kwargs is an optional dictionary of keyword arguments.

Example

Output

When the above code is executed, it produces the following result −

Program goes in an infinite loop. You will have to press ctrl-c to stop

Although it is very effective for low-level threading, the thread module is very limited compared to the newer threading module.

The Threading Module

The newer threading module included with Python 2.4 provides much more powerful, high-level support for threads than the thread module discussed in the previous section.

The threading module exposes all the methods of the thread module and provides some additional methods −

  • threading.activeCount() − Returns the number of thread objects that are active.

  • threading.currentThread() − Returns the number of thread objects in the caller's thread control.

  • threading.enumerate() − Returns a list of all thread objects that are currently active.

In addition to the methods, the threading module has the Thread class that implements threading. The methods provided by the Thread class are as follows −

  • run() − The run() method is the entry point for a thread.

  • start() − The start() method starts a thread by calling the run method.

  • join([time]) − The join() waits for threads to terminate.

  • isAlive() − The isAlive() method checks whether a thread is still executing.

  • getName() − The getName() method returns the name of a thread.

  • setName() − The setName() method sets the name of a thread.

Creating Thread Using Threading Module

To implement a new thread using the threading module, you have to do the following −

  • Define a new subclass of the Thread class.

  • Override the __init__(self [,args]) method to add additional arguments.

  • Then, override the run(self [,args]) method to implement what the thread should do when started.

Once you have created the new Thread subclass, you can create an instance of it and then start a new thread by invoking the start(), which in turn calls the run() method.

Example

Result

When we run the above program, it produces the following result −

Synchronizing Threads

The threading module provided with Python includes a simple-to-implement locking mechanism that allows you to synchronize threads. A new lock is created by calling the Lock() method, which returns the new lock.

The acquire(blocking) method of the new lock object is used to force the threads to run synchronously. The optional blocking parameter enables you to control whether the thread waits to acquire the lock.

If blocking is set to 0, the thread returns immediately with a 0 value if the lock cannot be acquired and with a 1 if the lock was acquired. If blocking is set to 1, the thread blocks and wait for the lock to be released.

The release() method of the new lock object is used to release the lock when it is no longer required.

Example

Output

When the above code is executed, it produces the following result −

Multithreaded Priority Queue

The Queue module allows you to create a new queue object that can hold a specific number of items. There are following methods to control the Queue −

Install Python Interpreter Windows 10

  • get() − The get() removes and returns an item from the queue.

  • put() − The put adds item to a queue.

  • qsize() − The qsize() returns the number of items that are currently in the queue.

  • empty() − The empty( ) returns True if queue is empty; otherwise, False.

  • full() − the full() returns True if queue is full; otherwise, False.

Output

When the above code is executed, it produces the following result −
