Run same script with two different arguments simultaneously

I have a script that computes 1000 integrals of a function defined in the script. This is fairly long to run, so I want to start the script again with another function before the first script finished running. Can these simultaneous runs with different arguments interfere? Or is the code compiled once, and then the script can be modified while running?

Thanks a lot for your answer!

Solution

  • Can these simultaneous runs with different arguments interfere?

    No.

    Or is the code compiled once, and then the script can be modified while running?

    Yes.

    Source code is usually only relevant for things like debugging and tracebacks, it's forgotten once a file has been imported or started running.
