When should I use concurrent futures in Python?

When should I use concurrent futures in Python?

You should use concurrent futures when you want to run tasks asynchronously, especially for I/O-bound operations.

Can you give me an example of an I/O-bound operation?

Sure! An example would be downloading multiple files from the internet simultaneously.

What about CPU-bound tasks? Is concurrent futures useful for those?

Yes, it can be useful, but for CPU-bound tasks, you might want to consider using multiprocessing instead.

How do I implement concurrent futures in my code?

You can use the ThreadPoolExecutor or ProcessPoolExecutor classes from the concurrent.futures module to manage your tasks.
