How can I implement round-robin scheduling in Python?

You can implement round-robin scheduling by creating a function that iterates through a list of processes, allocating time slices.

What data structures should I use for the processes?

You can use a list to store the processes and a queue to manage the order of execution.

Can you provide a sample code snippet?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

from collections import deque

def round_robin(processes, time_slice):
    queue = deque(processes)
    while queue:
        process = queue.popleft()
        print(f'Processing {process}')
        # Simulate processing time
        time.sleep(time_slice)
        # If process is not finished, re-add to queue
        if not process.is_finished():
            queue.append(process)

What if I want to add priorities to the processes?

You can modify the queue to prioritize certain processes by using a priority queue instead of a regular queue.
