How to Stream Tokens from a Mock LLM in Python
Simulate real-time LLM streaming by yielding tokens one at a time with a delay, making it easy to test streaming UIs.
import time
from typing import Generator
def stream_tokens(text: str, delay: float = 0.05) -> Generator[str, None, None]:
"""Simulate an LLM streaming tokens word by word."""
for word in text.split():
yield word
time.sleep(delay)
if __name__ == "__main__":

Build a Live Countdown Timer for Events in Python
A Python script that displays a real-time countdown to a target date and time, updating every second in the console.
import datetime
import time
def countdown(event_name, target_datetime):
"""Displays a live countdown to a target datetime."""
while True:
now = datetime.datetime.now()
remaining = target_datetime - now
if remaining.total_seconds() <= 0:
print(f"\n🚀 {event_name} is happening…
Build a Terminal Dashboard That Displays Real-Time System Performance in Python
A Python script that reads Linux system files to display a real-time terminal dashboard with CPU usage, memory usage, and CPU temperature.

url = "https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/simple/price"
params = {
"ids": ",".join(coin_ids),
"vs_currencies": "usd"
}
try:
response = requests.get(url, params=params, timeout=10)

How to Track Session Windows with Gap Timeout in Python
A Python class that groups events into sessions, closing a session when the gap between events exceeds a timeout threshold.
import time
class SessionWindow:
"""Track sessions with a gap timeout (mock)."""
def __init__(self, timeout_seconds=5):
self.timeout = timeout_seconds
self.session_start = None
self.last_event_time = None
self.event_count = 0
self.events = []

How to Track Cache Hit Ratio in Python
Simulate an LRU cache with hit/miss tracking and compute a real-time hit ratio from random access patterns.
import random
import time
from collections import OrderedDict
class LRUCache:
def __init__(self, capacity: int):
self.cache = OrderedDict()
self.capacity = capacity
self.hits = 0
self.misses = 0
def get(self, key):
if key in self.cache:
self.hits += 1
