Can pathos do this?

[Mradr]

Hi, I have the following code:

executor = concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor(1) future = executor.submit(function, var) future.result()

I like to convert this into using pathos. I don't see any compatibility functions - but I might have miss it. Is this possible to do in pathos? Basically it just runs a function that I pass some information to that I then get the results from.

It's planned to a more 1-to-1 match for the concurrent.futures interface. However, until then, the equivalent is something like this:

>>> import pathos.pools as pp
>>> executor = pp.ProcessPool(1)
>>> future = executor.apipe(lambda x:x*x, 5)
>>> future.get()
25
>>>
