How to Build a DAG Execution Stage Calculator in Python

Computes the execution stages of a directed acyclic graph (DAG) by grouping nodes that become ready simultaneously using topological sorting with Kahn's algorithm.

dag topological-sort kahn-algorithm
Python
from collections import defaultdict, deque


def get_stages(edges):
    """Return list of stages, where each stage is a list of nodes
    that become ready at the same time in a DAG."""
    graph = defaultdict(list)
    in_degree = defaultdict(int)
    nodes = set()

    for src, dst in edges:
        graph[src].appen…

How to Stage ML Model Workflows with Python Classes

Defines a Stage class to model ML pipeline stages with variants and mocks, printing grammar for Model, Staging, and Production stages.

Python
class Stage:
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name
        self.mocks = []
        self.variants = []

    def add_mock(self, mock_name):
        self.mocks.append(mock_name)

    def add_variant(self, variant_name, productions=()):
        self.variants.append((variant_name, list(productions)))

Training Pipeline Orchestration Mock DAG in Python

Build a mock DAG orchestrator that runs ML pipeline stages in dependency order using topological sorting (Kahn's algorithm).

dag pipeline topological-sort
Python
from collections import deque
from dataclasses import dataclass, field


@dataclass
class DAGNode:
    name: str
    task: callable
    dependencies: list[str] = field(default_factory=list)


class MockDAG:
    def __init__(self, nodes: list[DAGNode]):
        self.nodes = {n.name: n for n in nodes}

Copy-ready Python snippets for learners and developers

PythonSkillset code samples are short, focused examples organised by topic and difficulty. Every snippet is server-rendered HTML — readable by search engines and easy to copy. Open any sample, read the notes, copy the code, then press Try in editor to run it in the browser with Pyodide.

How to use this library

  1. Pick a topic section — strings, lists, files, functions, and more
  2. Open a sample, read How it works, and copy the code block
  3. Run it in the IDE, tweak values, then take a related quiz or tutorial lesson

Samples vs tutorials and challenges

Samples are quick reference — one concept per page. For step-by-step teaching, use our Python tutorials. To test yourself, try quizzes or coding challenges. Clean up style with the Python formatter.
