def add_n(x, n):
    return x + n

# the number of processes will be set to number of cores - 1 by default
p = Pool()

# will apply add_n to the element list of length three with n=5, showing a nice progress bar along
result = p.imap(add_n, [1, 2, 3], shared_args=(5, ))

assert list(result) == [6, 7, 8]
