什么是协程?它们与并发性有什么关系?


当前回答

我发现大多数答案都太专业了,尽管这是一个技术问题。我很难理解协同程序的过程。我有点明白,但我不能同时明白。

我发现这个答案非常有用:

引用伊丹·阿耶的话:

To build on your story, I'd put it something like this: You start watching the cartoon, but it's the intro. Instead of watching the intro you switch to the game and enter the online lobby - but it needs 3 players and only you and your sister are in it. Instead of waiting for another player to join you switch to your homework, and answer the first question. The second question has a link to a YouTube video you need to watch. You open it - and it starts loading. Instead of waiting for it to load, you switch back to the cartoon. The intro is over, so you can watch. Now there are commercials - but meanwhile a third player has joined so you switch to the game And so on... The idea is that you don't just switch the tasks really fast to make it look like you are doing everything at once. You utilize the time you are waiting for something to happen(IO) to do other things that do require your direct attention.

另一方面, 在python中,gevent库是一个基于协程的网络库,它为您提供线程类功能,如异步网络请求,而无需创建和销毁线程的开销。所使用的协程库是绿色的。

协程类似于子例程/线程。 区别在于,一旦调用方调用了子例程/线程,它将永远不会返回到调用方函数。 但是协程可以在执行几段代码后返回到调用方,允许调用方执行一些自己的代码,并返回到它停止执行的协程点,并从那里继续。 ie。协程有多个入口点和出口点

我将详述@user21714的答案。协程是独立的执行路径,不能同时运行。它们依赖于一个控制器(例如python控制器库)来处理这些路径之间的切换。但是为了实现这一点,协同程序本身需要调用yield或类似的结构,以允许它们的执行暂停。

相反,线程运行在独立的计算资源上,并且彼此并行。由于它们位于不同的资源上,因此不需要调用yield来允许其他执行路径继续进行。

您可以通过启动一个多线程程序(例如jvm应用程序)来看到这种效果,其中所有八个核心i7超线程核心都被利用了:您可能会在Activity Monitor或Top中看到797%的利用率。相反,当运行一个典型的python程序(即使是带有协程或python线程的程序)时,利用率最高将达到100%。例如,一台机器超线程。

协程和并发在很大程度上是正交的。协程是一种通用的控制结构,流控制在两个不同的例程之间协作传递而不返回。

Python中的'yield'语句就是一个很好的例子。它创建了一个协程。当遇到yield时,将保存函数的当前状态,并将控制返回给调用函数。然后,调用函数可以将执行转移回屈服函数,它的状态将恢复到遇到“屈服”的位置,并继续执行。
