all programs are single threaded unless otherwise specified.

Does Python have the ability to specify loops that should be executed in parallel, as e.g. Matlab uses parfor instead of for?

[-] lime@feddit.nu 52 points 1 year ago

python has way too many ways to do that. asyncio, future, thread, multiprocessing...

I've always hated object oriented multi threading. Goroutines (green threads) are just the best way 90% of the time. If I need to control where threads go I'll write it in rust.

nothing about any of those libraries dictates an OO approach.

Unless it's java.

Meh, even Java has decent FP paradigm support these days. Just because you can do everything in an OO way in Java doesn't mean you need to.

If I have to put a thread object in a variable and call a method on it to start it then it's OO multi threading. I don't want to know when the thread spawns, I don't want to know what code it's running, and I don't want to know when it's done. I just want shit to happen at the same time (90% of the time)
