atomicx 0.0.12

Description:

atomicx 0.0.12

atomicx

atomicx is an easy-to-use atomics library for Python, providing atomic integer and boolean operations. It allows you to perform atomic operations on shared variables, ensuring thread-safety and preventing race conditions in concurrent programming. Everything is entirely lock-free and is backed by Rust's atomic types.
Features

Atomic integer operations: load, store, add, subtract, swap, compare and exchange, multiply, divide, increment, decrement.
Atomic boolean operations: load, store, swap, compare and exchange, flip.

Installation
Binary wheels are provided for Python 3.7 and above on Linux, macOS, and Windows:
pip install atomicx

Usage
See the documentation for more information. Here's a quick overview:
Atomic Integer
from atomicx import AtomicInt

# Create an atomic integer with an initial value of 0
atom = AtomicInt()

# Perform atomic operations
atom.store(10)
value = atom.load()
print(f"Value: {value}")

previous_value = atom.swap(20)
print(f"Previous Value: {previous_value}")

atom.add(5)
print(f"Result after addition: {atom}")

# Increment and decrement operations
atom.inc()
atom.dec()

Atomic Boolean
from atomicx import AtomicBool

# Create an atomic boolean with an initial value of False
atom = AtomicBool()

# Perform atomic operations
atom.store(True)
value = atom.load()
print(f"Value: {value}")

previous_value = atom.swap(False)
print(f"Previous Value: {previous_value}")

result = atom.compare_exchange(False, True)
print(f"Swap Result: {result}")

# Flip the value of the atomic boolean
atom.flip()
