Answer 1

For Celery >= 3.0, TaskSet is deprecated in favour of group.

from celery import group
from tasks import add

job = group([
             add.s(2, 2),
             add.s(4, 4),
             add.s(8, 8),
             add.s(16, 16),
             add.s(32, 32),
])

Start the group in the background:

result = job.apply_async()

Wait:

result.join()
