Martin Teichmann added the comment: And as a last comment, just for completeness, a complete async console. With it you can do cool things like
>>> from asyncio import sleep, async >>> def f(): ... yield from sleep(3) ... print("done") >>> yield from f() [after 3 seconds] done >>> async(f()) >>> [wait another 3 seconds] done Just see how async puts something in the background, while yield from keeps it up, and how the event loop runs even while we're doing nothing! Let's hope other projects out there are more open to making their event loops asyncio-compatible than CPython is - otherwise asyncio will soon cease to exist. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file36633/cl.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22412> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
