Not bad (chat gpt can do this too) but it seems to be on par for this “simple” task: > Write me a python function that accepts a list of filenames and uses threads and queues to load them in parallel with the pickle library … > Also, please output the results to a queue as well Final result import pickle import threading import queue def load_files_in_parallel(filenames, results_queue): """Loads a list of files in pa…
>>> alpha = ["a", "b", "c"]
>>> def load_files_in_parallel(filenames):
... for _ in range(len(filenames)):
... _ = filenames.pop()
...
>>> load_files_in_parallel(alpha)
>>> alpha
[]
And I mean, just damn, because it was already iterating over the list of filenames using such a convoluted mechanism, what a great opportunity to put the filename into a local var without mutating the caller's list
