Python Progress Bar Escalation

from tqdm import tqdm_notebook as tqdm from tqdm import tqdm with tqdm(total=len(values), file=sys.stdout) as pbar: for i in range(1000): if i % 100 == 0: print(i) for i in range(1000): print(i) $ python main.py > log.txt & $ cat log.txt | wc -l

A four-panel expanding-brain meme shows increasingly elaborate ways to process or monitor a Python loop. It escalates from importing tqdm, to using a progress bar, to manually printing periodic updates, and finally redirecting output to a file and counting its lines. The joke is that the simplest shell-based solution is portrayed as the most enlightened.
