Can use use a global variable for the dictionary?

And import it into the multi threaded process?

And import it into the multi threaded process?

Hello,<br />
<br />
I'm fairly new to Python; and I'm trying to find some resources that properly explains how to structure a multi-threaded Python project. This will be running in GNU/Linux.<br />
<br />
My main concern is that I have a dictionary that needs to be read by all the threads; would it be possible to access the dictionary in each thread without explicitly passing the variable into each thread?<br />
<br />
Also, I would need to write into multiple files; would it be better to have one thread that accesses these files, or is Python/Unix smart enough to allow one thread to finish writing the entire line before another thread jumps in to write something?<br />
<br />
Appreciate any advice on this!

Best practices for multi-threading in Python

Python is a widely used general-purpose, high-level programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than would be possible in other languages. Python supports multiple programming paradigms, including object-oriented, imperative and functional programming or procedural styles. It features a dynamic type system and automatic memory management and has a large and comprehensive set of standard libraries, including NumPy, SciPy, Django, PyQuery, and PyLibrary.

Python

A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.
