#
# Create some processes and start them
#
# Run using python3 Lec03_proc4.py
#
from multiprocessing import Process

def go_proc():
	for i in range(5):
		# Create each process, have it run say_hello(i)
		# then print child's process id
		#
		p = Process(target=say_hello, args=([i]))
		    # (Note list of argument values)
		p.start()
		print('started process {}'.format(p.pid))

def say_hello(id):
	print('hello from child {}'.format(id))

go_proc()	# run the main program

# Sample output
#
# started process 1214
# started process 1215
# hello from child 0
# started process 1216
# hello from child 1
# started process 1217
# hello from child 2
# hello from child 3
# started process 1218
# hello from child 4
