JavaScript timers

JavaScript Timers: setTimeout and setInterval Explained

JavaScript timers let us schedule code to run after a certain amount of time. They’re useful for delays, repeated tasks, and adding a bit of life to our code—like waiting before showing a message or running something every few seconds. In this article, we’ll focus on how to use two built-in JavaScript functions: setTimeout and

python psutil

Python: Accessing and Managing Processes by PID with psutil

Process management is an important part of working with operating systems, and Python makes it easy using the psutil library. This powerful tool lets you access and control system processes directly by their Process IDs, or PIDs. With psutil, you can find running processes, read detailed information about them, and even manage their state—like suspending,

python process event signal

Python: Using Event for Signaling Between Processes

When working with multiple processes in Python, sometimes one process needs to tell others to start or stop doing something. This is called signaling. The multiprocessing.Event is a simple tool that lets one process send a signal, and other processes wait for that signal before continuing. In this article, you will learn how to create

Python IPC: Using RawArray for Fast and Direct Memory Sharing

Inter-Process Communication (IPC) is how different running Python processes share information with each other. When processes need to work together quickly, sharing data directly in memory is very useful. RawArray from Python’s multiprocessing.sharedctypes module provides a way to create fixed-size arrays in shared memory. Unlike other shared objects, RawArray does not use locks, so it

Python RawValue

Python IPC: When to Use RawValue for Low-Level Shared Data

Inter-Process Communication (IPC) allows different processes in a program to share information and work together. When processes run separately, sharing data quickly and simply is important for smooth communication. One way to do this in Python is by using shared memory. RawValue is a tool in Python’s multiprocessing.sharedctypes module that lets you share basic data

python process arrays

Python IPC: Sharing Arrays Across Processes with Array

Inter-Process Communication (IPC) is how different processes in a program share data with each other. In Python, processes don’t share memory space by default, so when they need to work with the same data—like numbers in a list—we need a safe way to do that. That’s where multiprocessing.Array comes in. It creates a shared array
