Design a Data Helper Class in Python

Create a simple Object-Oriented data helper with DataPoint and Dataset classes that store, describe, and summarize coordinate points.

oop classes data-helper
Python
class DataPoint:
    def __init__(self, x, y):
        self.x = x
        self.y = y
        self.label = None

    def describe(self):

        base = f"DataPoint(x={self.x}, y={self.y})"

How to Build a Coordinate Grid with Nested Loops in Python

Generate a 2D list of (row, col) coordinate pairs using nested loops and return the grid structure.

    """Build a 2D grid of (row, col) coordinates using nested loops."""

How to Build a Producer-Consumer Pattern with asyncio.Queue in Python

This code implements a classic producer-consumer pattern using asyncio.Queue to coordinate one producer task that generates items and two consumer tasks that process them concurrently, with a sentinel value to signal completion.

asyncio queue concurrency
Python
import asyncio
import random


async def producer(queue, item_count):
    for i in range(item_count):
        item = random.randint(1, 100)
        await queue.put(item)
        print(f"Produced: {item}")
        await asyncio.sleep(0.1)
    await queue.put(None)  # Sentinel to signal end


async def consumer(queue, n…

How to Signal asyncio Workers to Stop with an Event in Python

Use an asyncio.Event to coordinate graceful shutdown of multiple concurrent worker tasks in Python.

asyncio events concurrency
Python
import asyncio
import random

async def worker(name, stop_event):
    while not stop_event.is_set():
        await asyncio.sleep(random.uniform(0.1, 0.5))
        print(f"Worker {name} processing...")
    print(f"Worker {name} stopped.")

async def main():
    stop_event = asyncio.Event()
    workers = [asyncio.create…

asyncio Condition wait notify pattern in Python

Coordinate coroutines with asyncio.Condition: workers wait for notifications and the main task notifies one or all of them.

asyncio concurrency synchronization
Python
import asyncio


async def worker(condition, name):
    async with condition:
        print(f"{name} waiting...")
        await condition.wait()
        print(f"{name} notified!")


async def main():
    condition = asyncio.Condition()
