the following is from python documentation:

from multiprocessing import shared_memory
a = shared_memory.ShareableList(['howdy', b'HoWdY', -273.154, 100, None, True, 42])
[ type(entry) for entry in a ]
[, , , , , , ]
a[2]
-273.154
a[2] = -78.5
a[2]
-78.5
a[2] = 'dry ice'  # Changing data types is supported as well
a[2]
'dry ice'
a[2] = 'larger than previously allocated storage space'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  ...
ValueError: exceeds available storage for existing str
a[2]
'dry ice'
len(a)
7
a.index(42)
6
a.count(b'howdy')
0
a.count(b'HoWdY')
1
a.shm.close()
a.shm.unlink()
del a  # Use of a ShareableList after call to unlink() is unsupported
