<p>你需要作兩件事:腳本程式必須可以被執行而且第一行必須」#!」開頭後面接上Python直譯器的路徑</p>
<p>The first is done by executing <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">chmod</span> <span class="pre">+x</span> <span class="pre">scriptfile</span></code> or perhaps <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">chmod</span> <span class="pre">755</span>
<span class="pre">scriptfile</span></code>.</p>
<p>The second can be done in a number of ways. The most straightforward way is to
write</p>
<div class="highlight-python3 notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="ch">#!/usr/local/bin/python</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>as the very first line of your file, using the pathname for where the Python
interpreter is installed on your platform.</p>
<p>If you would like the script to be independent of where the Python interpreter
lives, you can use the <strong class="program">env</strong> program. Almost all Unix variants support
the following, assuming the Python interpreter is in a directory on the user’s
<span class="target" id="index-0"></span><code class="xref std std-envvar docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">PATH</span></code>:</p>
<div class="highlight-python3 notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="ch">#!/usr/bin/env python</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p><em>Don’t</em> do this for CGI scripts. The <span class="target" id="index-1"></span><code class="xref std std-envvar docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">PATH</span></code> variable for CGI scripts is
often very minimal, so you need to use the actual absolute pathname of the
interpreter.</p>
<p>Occasionally, a user’s environment is so full that the <strong class="program">/usr/bin/env</strong>
program fails; or there’s no env program at all. In that case, you can try the
following hack (due to Alex Rezinsky):</p>
<div class="highlight-sh notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="ch">#! /bin/sh</span>
<span class="s2">""":"</span>
<span class="nb">exec</span> python <span class="nv">$0</span> <span class="si">${</span><span class="nv">1</span><span class="p">+</span><span class="s2">"</span><span class="nv">$@</span><span class="s2">"</span><span class="si">}</span>
<span class="s2">"""</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The minor disadvantage is that this defines the script’s __doc__ string.
However, you can fix that by adding</p>
<div class="highlight-python3 notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="vm">__doc__</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s2">"""...Whatever..."""</span>

<p>Python comes with two testing frameworks. The <a class="reference internal" href="../library/doctest.html#module-doctest" title="doctest: Test pieces of code within docstrings."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">doctest</span></code></a> module finds
examples in the docstrings for a module and runs them, comparing the output with
the expected output given in the docstring.</p>
<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="../library/unittest.html#module-unittest" title="unittest: Unit testing framework for Python."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">unittest</span></code></a> module is a fancier testing framework modelled on Java and
Smalltalk testing frameworks.</p>
<p>To make testing easier, you should use good modular design in your program.
Your program should have almost all functionality
encapsulated in either functions or class methods – and this sometimes has the
surprising and delightful effect of making the program run faster (because local
variable accesses are faster than global accesses). Furthermore the program
should avoid depending on mutating global variables, since this makes testing
much more difficult to do.</p>
<p>The 「global main logic」 of your program may be as simple as</p>
<div class="highlight-python3 notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">if</span> <span class="vm">__name__</span> <span class="o">==</span> <span class="s2">"__main__"</span><span class="p">:</span>
<span class="n">main_logic</span><span class="p">()</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>在你的程式主模組的底端</p>
<p>Once your program is organized as a tractable collection of functions and class
behaviours you should write test functions that exercise the behaviours. A test
suite that automates a sequence of tests can be associated with each module.
This sounds like a lot of work, but since Python is so terse and flexible it’s
surprisingly easy. You can make coding much more pleasant and fun by writing
your test functions in parallel with the 「production code」, since this makes it
easy to find bugs and even design flaws earlier.</p>
<p>「Support modules」 that are not intended to be the main module of a program may
include a self-test of the module.</p>
<div class="highlight-python3 notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">if</span> <span class="vm">__name__</span> <span class="o">==</span> <span class="s2">"__main__"</span><span class="p">:</span>
<span class="n">self_test</span><span class="p">()</span>

<p>Even programs that interact with complex external interfaces may be tested when
the external interfaces are unavailable by using 「fake」 interfaces implemented
in Python.</p>

<p>As soon as the main thread exits, all threads are killed. Your main thread is
running too quickly, giving the threads no time to do any work.</p>
<p>A simple fix is to add a sleep to the end of the program that’s long enough for
all the threads to finish:</p>
<div class="highlight-python3 notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="kn">import</span> <span class="nn">threading</span><span class="o">,</span> <span class="nn">time</span>

<p>But now (on many platforms) the threads don’t run in parallel, but appear to run
sequentially, one at a time! The reason is that the OS thread scheduler doesn’t
start a new thread until the previous thread is blocked.</p>
<p>A simple fix is to add a tiny sleep to the start of the run function:</p>

<p>A <a class="reference internal" href="../glossary.html#term-global-interpreter-lock"><span class="xref std std-term">global interpreter lock</span></a> (GIL) is used internally to ensure that only one
thread runs in the Python VM at a time. In general, Python offers to switch

be set via <a class="reference internal" href="../library/sys.html#sys.setswitchinterval" title="sys.setswitchinterval"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys.setswitchinterval()</span></code></a>. Each bytecode instruction and
therefore all the C implementation code reached from each instruction is
therefore atomic from the point of view of a Python program.</p>
<p>In theory, this means an exact accounting requires an exact understanding of the
PVM bytecode implementation. In practice, it means that operations on shared
variables of built-in data types (ints, lists, dicts, etc) that 「look atomic」
really are.</p>

<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="../glossary.html#term-global-interpreter-lock"><span class="xref std std-term">global interpreter lock</span></a> (GIL) is often seen as a hindrance to Python’s
deployment on high-end multiprocessor server machines, because a multi-threaded
Python program effectively only uses one CPU, due to the insistence that
(almost) all Python code can only run while the GIL is held.</p>
<p>Back in the days of Python 1.5, Greg Stein actually implemented a comprehensive
patch set (the 「free threading」 patches) that removed the GIL and replaced it
with fine-grained locking. Adam Olsen recently did a similar experiment
in his <a class="reference external" href="https://code.google.com/archive/p/python-safethread">python-safethread</a>
project. Unfortunately, both experiments exhibited a sharp drop in single-thread
performance (at least 30% slower), due to the amount of fine-grained locking
necessary to compensate for the removal of the GIL.</p>
<p>This doesn’t mean that you can’t make good use of Python on multi-CPU machines!
You just have to be creative with dividing the work up between multiple
<em>processes</em> rather than multiple <em>threads</em>. The
<a class="reference internal" href="../library/concurrent.futures.html#concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor" title="concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">ProcessPoolExecutor</span></code></a> class in the new
<a class="reference internal" href="../library/concurrent.futures.html#module-concurrent.futures" title="concurrent.futures: Execute computations concurrently using threads or processes."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">concurrent.futures</span></code></a> module provides an easy way of doing so; the
<a class="reference internal" href="../library/multiprocessing.html#module-multiprocessing" title="multiprocessing: Process-based parallelism."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">multiprocessing</span></code></a> module provides a lower-level API in case you want
more control over dispatching of tasks.</p>
<p>Judicious use of C extensions will also help; if you use a C extension to
perform a time-consuming task, the extension can release the GIL while the
thread of execution is in the C code and allow other threads to get some work
done. Some standard library modules such as <a class="reference internal" href="../library/zlib.html#module-zlib" title="zlib: Low-level interface to compression and decompression routines compatible with gzip."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">zlib</span></code></a> and <a class="reference internal" href="../library/hashlib.html#module-hashlib" title="hashlib: Secure hash and message digest algorithms."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">hashlib</span></code></a>
already do this.</p>
<p>It has been suggested that the GIL should be a per-interpreter-state lock rather
than truly global; interpreters then wouldn’t be able to share objects.
Unfortunately, this isn’t likely to happen either. It would be a tremendous
amount of work, because many object implementations currently have global state.
For example, small integers and short strings are cached; these caches would
have to be moved to the interpreter state. Other object types have their own
free list; these free lists would have to be moved to the interpreter state.
And so on.</p>
<p>And I doubt that it can even be done in finite time, because the same problem
exists for 3rd party extensions. It is likely that 3rd party extensions are
being written at a faster rate than you can convert them to store all their
global state in the interpreter state.</p>
<p>And finally, once you have multiple interpreters not sharing any state, what
have you gained over running each interpreter in a separate process?</p>

you can also use the <a class="reference internal" href="../library/array.html#module-array" title="array: Space efficient arrays of uniformly typed numeric values."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">array</span></code></a> module.</p>

<p>Python <a class="reference internal" href="../glossary.html#term-file-object"><span class="xref std std-term">file objects</span></a> are a high-level layer of
abstraction on low-level C file descriptors.</p>
<p>For most file objects you create in Python via the built-in <a class="reference internal" href="../library/functions.html#open" title="open"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">open()</span></code></a>
function, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">f.close()</span></code> marks the Python file object as being closed from
Python’s point of view, and also arranges to close the underlying C file
descriptor. This also happens automatically in <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">f</span></code>’s destructor, when
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">f</span></code> becomes garbage.</p>
<p>But stdin, stdout and stderr are treated specially by Python, because of the
special status also given to them by C. Running <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sys.stdout.close()</span></code> marks
the Python-level file object as being closed, but does <em>not</em> close the
associated C file descriptor.</p>
<p>To close the underlying C file descriptor for one of these three, you should
first be sure that’s what you really want to do (e.g., you may confuse
extension modules trying to do I/O). If it is, use <a class="reference internal" href="../library/os.html#os.close" title="os.close"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">os.close()</span></code></a>:</p>

<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="../library/select.html#module-select" title="select: Wait for I/O completion on multiple streams."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">select</span></code></a> module is commonly used to help with asynchronous I/O on
sockets.</p>
<p>To prevent the TCP connect from blocking, you can set the socket to non-blocking
mode. Then when you do the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">connect()</span></code>, you will either connect immediately
(unlikely) or get an exception that contains the error number as <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">.errno</span></code>.
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">errno.EINPROGRESS</span></code> indicates that the connection is in progress, but hasn’t
finished yet. Different OSes will return different values, so you’re going to
have to check what’s returned on your system.</p>
<p>You can use the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">connect_ex()</span></code> method to avoid creating an exception. It will
just return the errno value. To poll, you can call <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">connect_ex()</span></code> again later
– <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">0</span></code> or <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">errno.EISCONN</span></code> indicate that you’re connected – or you can pass this
socket to select to check if it’s writable.</p>

</div>
<p>This returns a random floating point number in the range [0, 1).</p>
<p>There are also many other specialized generators in this module, such as:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">randrange(a,</span> <span class="pre">b)</span></code> chooses an integer in the range [a, b).</li>
<li><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">uniform(a,</span> <span class="pre">b)</span></code> chooses a floating point number in the range [a, b).</li>
<li><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">normalvariate(mean,</span> <span class="pre">sdev)</span></code> samples the normal (Gaussian) distribution.</li>
</ul>
<p>Some higher-level functions operate on sequences directly, such as:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">choice(S)</span></code> chooses random element from a given sequence</li>
<li><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">shuffle(L)</span></code> shuffles a list in-place, i.e. permutes it randomly</li>
</ul>
<p>There’s also a <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Random</span></code> class you can instantiate to create independent
multiple random number generators.</p>
