Multiprocessing in Python is a module that allows you to create processes that can run tasks in parallel on different CPU cores, bypassing the limitations of Python’s Global Interpreter Lock (GIL) that restricts threads to one CPU core due to thread-safety considerations. This module enables you to effectively leverage multiple processors on a machine, particularly useful for CPU-bound tasks that require heavy computation and can benefit…
