very simple, easy to understand and to the point. Probably can say the best tutorial for basics of multiprocessing.Thanks!

[SandhanSarma]

Clear and concise tutorial. Examples are very simple and easy for a newbie to get the basics. Thumbs up!

[officesuperhero]

This is an incredibly helpful video. So clear! Excellent job!

[vishnubalakrishnan]

Really simple to understand. Helped me a lot. Thanks!

[deepaksrinivasan]

One of the best tutorial for Multi Processing / threadings!! Just brilliant :)

[chiemerieokoro]

I have watched quite a few multithreading videos. I'm sure this is the best out there. Thank you.

[panthera]

Love this video.. explained very well😊

[braian_nunes]

Nice tutorial. It helped me a lot! Thanks.

[Neuroszima]

Hmmm i actually learned something from this, nicely done :D

[smh]

Very well explained. Can you throw some insight on how to implement multiprocessing in Object oriented way ?

[drcvagos-iu]

very interesting sir, I never knew about these concepts, though I learn programming long time ago :)

[pragatipawar]

Simple and clear.. helped me a lot... thanks a lot!!!

[dinesh.p]

Thank you dhaval for ur content. One day i wish to meet u.

[deepakchandra]

Thanks for making such an useful content.

HI, thanks for the tutorial. Will it also work if I execute the code under a "while True" loop??? Because I tried doing this with two functions, but I don't see any results.

[ianiss]

I liked it, though, you started to talk about the thing that interest me the most - how to bring results back to main, only to skip it....

[T_Samantha]

where from u got this numbers array? have u defined it before?

[stefan]

Is any need of terminating spawned processes ? I spawn a process within a thread, so i have a question what happens when main thread dies.

[haneulkim]

Thank you! If I have 2 core CPU and running 3 processes at one using multiprocessing just like in your tutorial then actually 2 processes are running at same time?

[professor_baltazar]

Actually it make sense when we avoid using join(), because if we use join, main process will wait until the another process are finished and I think the main goal of multiprocessing is for parallel programming, so it would be better when we can run processes concurrently, so without join function. At least for my project if I use join, then it is the same as I run the eintire code in one process.
