在程序之間共享狀態

預設情況下，在不同程序中執行的程式碼不共享相同的資料。但是，multiprocessing 模組包含幫助在多個程序之間共享值的原語。

import multiprocessing

plain_num = 0
shared_num = multiprocessing.Value('d', 0)
lock = multiprocessing.Lock()

def increment():
    global plain_num
    with lock:
        # ordinary variable modifications are not visible across processes
        plain_num += 1
        # multiprocessing.Value modifications are
        shared_num.value += 1

ps = [multiprocessing.Process(target=increment) for n in range(4)]
for p in ps:
    p.start()
for p in ps:
    p.join()

print("plain_num is %d, shared_num is %d" % (plain_num, shared_num.value))

# Out: plain_num is 0, shared_num is 4
