How do I use cachetools in Python?

You can use the cachetools library to implement caching in Python. First, install it using pip install cachetools. What specific caching strategy are you interested in?

I'm interested in using LRU cache.

Great choice! You can use cachetools.LRUCache for that. Here's a simple example:

from cachetools import LRUCache

cache = LRUCache(maxsize=100)

# Adding items to the cache
cache['key1'] = 'value1'

# Accessing items
print(cache['key1'])  # Output: value1
