What is the equivalent of a C# Task in python

Question

I need to translate my c# code to python. I have a Task in c# and need to translate it to python. Here is a piece of the code:

List<Task> t = new List<Task>();
for(int i = 0; i < _tasks.Count; i++)
{
     var theTask = _tasks[i];
     t.Add(Task.Factory.StartNew(() => theTask.SAPTask.Execute(theTask.index, theTask.WindowCount)));
}
t.ForEach(x => x.Wait());

This little piece of code is crucial to run my program. I need python to run all the tasks in the list in separate threads, and block the main thread until all the tasks are completed. Does python have this functionality?

Answer 1

I need Python to run all the tasks in the list and then block the main thread until all the tasks are completed.

The main use case for Task is to avoid blocking the main thread, so the user can interact with application while the work is pushed to different threads.

Are you just trying to implement parallelism between individual pieces of work?
If you're using Python 3.2, there is concurrent.futures that does look like TPL in a way.
