Python: Good place to learn about `multiprocessing.Manager`?

Question

I want to learn to use multiprocessing.Manager. I looked at the documentation but it's not easy enough for me. Anyone knows of a good tutorial or something like that?

Answer 1

Hm, from a first glance, the documentation of multiprocessing.Manager seems decent:

Managers provide a way to create data which can be shared between different processes. A manager object controls a server process which manages shared objects. Other processes can access the shared objects by using proxies. [and so on]

Manager objects allow you to create variables shared in multiple processes. What is it that you exactly want to achieve? Maybe a request for an example would help?

Answer 2

This page has some great multiprocessing examples, including examples of how to use Manager. I found it really helpful in wrapping my head around multiprocessing.
