🔒 Timed program using loops

[unkempt wadi]

Solution 1

some_future_time = any
def main():
    while some_future_time => datetime.datetime.now():
        end()

solution 2

list_of_future timing = [any]

async def main():
    for i in list_of_future_timing:
        if i > datetime.datetime.now():
            end()
        else:
            await asyncio.sleep(i)
            end()

Which one is more preferable?

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

i mean, you don't have to use asyncio, but it's certainly a good idea to sleep instead of spending an entire CPU core on waiting

also, not sure what the list is for in the second solution.

Both are for same purpose

I'm just waiting until specific timing

For example i have scheduled something for 1 hour later then it'll be stored in list

what does end() do?
