Question 1

What does the event loop in asyncio do?

  • Manages CPU-bound tasks
  • Schedules and runs coroutines
  • Handles synchronous blocking code

πŸ’‘ Hint: Focus on its role in coroutine management.

Question 2

True or False: A coroutine can execute operations while waiting for I/O.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how I/O operations work in async.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Write a Python asyncio application that demonstrates handling three different I/O-bound tasks concurrently. Each task should simulate a time delay and print its progress.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use asyncio.gather to run multiple coroutines.

Question 2

Explain why using asyncio for handling numerous API calls is more resource-efficient compared to traditional threading. Discuss potential pitfalls in switching from threading to asyncio.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the differences in resource allocation between threading and asyncio.
