Your code is pretty good, so I think you would benefit a lot by submitting it to Stack Overflow's Code Review. In particular, it is best to use lexical file and directory handles, "${\File::Spec->catfile($dir, $file)}" is much cleaner as File::Spec->catfile($dir, $file), and "$file" should be $file. There is more, but a comment is not the place to identify or explain it. — Borodin 14 secs ago

What kind of package, are you deploying?
It took a while, but I'm actually starting to enjoy C#, once you go LINQ it is not that bad actually.
I mostly work on odd-jobs at work, mostly between a large variety of REST APIs, so it's nice to be able to package all that up. It's also nice to be able to deploy a package from PyPI, rather than by hand
From what I've seen LINQ is really nice, kinda like a better itertools, with much nicer syntax

I think this is better suited on CodeReview.SE, or you'll at least get a more in depth answer there. The only real issues I see with your setup is that (a) you won't be able to access your data any other way than by calling the MVC backend without having to duplicate your code (b) You have no way to avoid the SaveChanges(), e.g. when you decide mid-method that you don't want to save anything and return an error. But this is easily solved by e.g. having a boolean variable that can prevent SaveChanges() from being called. — Flater 28 secs ago

Sorry, you you just "can't code review LGPL" if it is against your religion or something like that. Nothing legaly stops you from reviewing LGPL or contributing LGPL code, and that is pure FUD.

@Mast Put very simply: I want to send this server 10 different requests every 2 seconds. Which will return numbers. And have my code update some variables in real-time based on whatever the most recent responses were.
This sounds like something that can probably do that?

10 requests all at once at the same port? Or 10 different requests, not exactly at the same time at different ports? Or a combination?
Kaz
Kaz
@Mast 10 requests at basically-the-same-time to the same public endpoint.
What I envision is some *thing* which sits there, firing off the same request every 2 seconds, and listening for responses to come back, and feeding back whichever one has the most up-to-date timestamp. And then 10 of those running in paralell.
I'm not saying that python is gonna suck at this, but...
But it sounds like you want something like Node.JS instead, yea.

Q: Is tornado an async webserver?

EugeneI am learning to write a backend server that can handle thousands of connections. I take a look on some sample code, but find it is still writing in sync logic. For example: (take from http://www.tornadoweb.org/en/stable/gen.html) @gen.coroutine def get(self): http_client = AsyncHTTPClient...

@Mast Basically. I have calls to a REST API. They weren't time-sensitive, so I just ran them sequentially. Now, I want it to be as close to real-time as the server will respond to me.
request bundling, eh?

@Vogel612 Pretty much.

Q: Validating data using up to four kinds of validation rules

billynoahSometimes I end up with a function that requires checking multiple conditions to determine outcome and the logic can get to be too much to handle on a single line. Here's an example of how I currently handle this: function validateType($type,$data) { if ( (isset($this->validationRules[$typ...

Q: Effective way to find two string are anagrams

YsurfMy approach for checking anagrams is: step 1: Remove all the space from Both input string. step 2: Sort both the string. step 3: Return false if length differ. step 4 : Return true if all char matches. #include<iostream> #include<set> #include<string> #include <algorithm> bool anagrams(std:...

that does sound like a good place for asyncio

I was right? Bloody genius.

in principle you'd want to aggregate all the results before sending the next round of requests, just to not have to maintain an update-time for each of the fields you're updating

Kaz
@Vogel612 the update-time is pretty important. This is financial market data. I definitely need to know what timestamp my data corresponds to.
if you maintain it anyways then you can decouple the requests from one another
Kaz
Kaz
@Vogel612 I would definitely like to do that.
FWIW an alternative to the corouine solution that asyncio uses would be "Continuation Passing".
some people refer to that as callbacks, but I found that to be somewhat misleading

@JoshBeam in the future, please don't use Code Review as a reason to close a question. Evaluate the request and use a reason like unclear what you're asking, too broad, primarily opinion-based, etc. Please see the section What you should not do in this answer to A guide to Code Review for Stack Overflow usersSam Onela 56 secs ago

Got the correct replacement capacitors for my monitor.
Or slow allocation if you're storing all 10^6 inputs. Python is indeed fast at times, but allocating 1e7 ints still requires a lot of free memory the "system" executing your code may not have, forcing it to fall back on swap memory, which is much slower than physical RAM on traditional hard disks. You might consider having all of your code reviewed since I/O might not be the only problem here, if it is a problem at all, but SO isn't the site for that: codereview.stackexchange.comChrono Kitsune 55 secs ago
I agree that the "feel free to offer suggestions" portion would be more relevant to being on CodeReview, but that was not the root of my presence here - I have a question of location for a test and was seeking help in writing it.
