Description of  Using Asyncio in Python 3

If youre among the Python developers put off by Asyncios complexity, its time to take another look. Asyncio is complicated because it aims to solve problems in concurrent network programming for both framework developers and end-user developers like you. The features you need to consider are a small subset of the whole Asyncio API, but picking out the right features is the tricky part. Thats where this practical ebook comes in. Veteran Python developer Caleb Hattingh helps end-user developers gain a basic understanding of Asyncios building blocksenough to get you started writing simple event-based programs. Youll learn why Asyncio offers a safer alternative to preemptive multitasking (threading) and how this API provides a simple way to support thousands of simultaneous socket connections.
