Sliding Window Average with Deque in Python
Computes the running average of a sliding window over streaming numbers using a collections.deque for O(1) pop-left operations.
from collections import deque
class SlidingAverage:
def __init__(self, window_size):
self.window_size = window_size
self.window = deque()
self.total = 0
def add(self, value):
self.window.append(value)
self.total += value
if len(self.window) > self.window_size:
…Build a queue-based admission control system in Python
Implement a simple bounded-queue admission controller that accepts or rejects incoming requests based on current queue capacity.
from collections import deque
import time
class AdmissionControl:
"""Simple admission control using a bounded queue.
Requests arrive at the queue; they are admitted in FIFO order.
If the queue is full, the incoming request is rejected.
