Folder creation in parallel in a FOR loop python

Question

Is there anyway i can have the below folder creation happen in parallel rather than iterate? I tried with multiprocessing and it seems to be not working. Any suggestions welcome.

import os
from time import sleep
import multiprocessing

def foldercreation(foldername):
    target_dir = 'C:\\Users\\Myna\\Desktop\\Cisco'
    os.mkdir(os.path.join(target_dir,foldername))

n=multiprocessing.cpu_count()
print(n)
with multiprocessing.Pool(processes=n) as p:
    for i in ['A','B','C','D']:
        foldercreation(i)

Answer 1

You're not using the pool.

Here's an example:

with multiprocessing.Pool(processes=n) as p:
    p.map(foldercreation, ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'])
