So do games run usually as background processes?

Hi,

There are multiple processes that runs while you are playing a game. For example, even thought you cannot see it explicitely, there is a process that runs in that background that keeps the score. However, games do not run solely on background processes.

Thanks.

Hi,

Your work/code is evaluated automatically by our assessment engine. You would write your code mostly on the console or the Jupyter notebook. When you write your code on the notebook or console on the right side of the tutorial, and you submit your code for assessment using the submit button given below the tutorial, the system automatically detects your code and assess it.

Thanks.

Hi Nagu,

In this slide you just have to select an answer from options goven for question.
In some slides you have to execute commands in console and in some slides you have to execute code in notebook.

Hi, Rohit.

Yes, you are right!
There are many processes/programs running in the form of threads at the background when you are running anythings!.
You can always look at it by command ps x in LInux.

All the best!

There can be multiple process running at the same time.CPU/Memory has the ability to handle multithreading.

Are there any other background processes running while you are playing a game - or is it just the game ? This question is to give an idea of what a process is and to set the ground for process ID - to be covered in the upcoming chapters.
