How to Implement a Sliding Window Average in Python

Compute the average of the most recent N values in a stream using a bounded deque, efficiently updating the total as new values arrive.

deque sliding-window streaming
Python
from collections import deque


class SlidingWindowAverage:
    def __init__(self, window_size):
        self.window_size = window_size
        self.window = deque(maxlen=window_size)
        self.total = 0

    def add(self, value):
        if len(self.window) == self.window_size:
            self.total -= self.windo…

How to Track Checkpoint Offset After Batch Commit in Python

A batch processor that tracks the last successfully committed offset after processing records in batches, advancing the checkpoint only when each batch commits successfully.

batch-processing checkpoint offset
Python
import json
from typing import Any


class BatchProcessor:
    """Tracks checkpoint offset after committing batches."""

    def __init__(self, batch_size: int = 3):
        self.batch_size = batch_size
        self.offset = 0  # last successfully committed offset (exclusive)
        self.total_committed = 0

How to route late-arriving data to a side output in Python

Separate late-arriving events from a streaming data batch into a dead-letter side output list using a timestamp threshold.
