Beyond Lists: Using Python Deque for Real-Time Sliding Windows

# Python's Deque: A Faster Way to Process Streaming Data If your business relies on analyzing data flowing in real-time—like stock prices, website traffic, or sensor readings—Python has a tool that processes these streams much faster than traditional methods. Instead of constantly rearranging data in memory (which slows things down), a feature called "deque" lets your system smoothly handle windows of recent data without the performance hit.
