Python Versus Nim: Async

No performance benchmark.
Python ⟿ PEP-8
Nim ⟿ NEP1
Python ⟿ 3.7
Nim ⟿ 0.19
No Ofuscation, no Code-Golf.

This is to compare elegant, simple, expressive code.

Recently I stumbled upon a post which takes a closer look at the yes command line tool. The main purpose of it is to write endless stream of a single letter y at a ridiculous speed.

On the first glance this seems like a really simple problem, just two lines of Nim and you're done, right?

while true:
  echo "y"

And indeed, this gives us plenty of y's. But when we take a look at the write speed..

	I was drawn to programming, science, technology and science fiction
	ever since I was a little kid. I can't say it's because I wanted to
	make the world a better place. Not really. I was simply drawn to it
	because I was drawn to it. Writing programs was fun. Figuring out how
	nature works was fascinating. Science fiction felt like a grand
	adventure.

	Then I started a software company and poured every ounce of energy
	into it. It failed. That hurt, but that part is ok. I made a lot of
	mistakes and learned from them. This experience made me much, much

	This Nim source file is a multiple threaded implementation to perform an
	extremely fast Segmented Sieve of Zakiya (SSoZ) to find Twin Primes <= N.

	Inputs are single values N, or ranges N1 and N2, of 64-bits, 0 -- 2^64 - 1.
	Output is the number of twin primes <= N, or in range N1 to N2; the last
	twin prime value for the range; and the total time of execution.

	Code originally developed on a System76 laptop with an Intel I7 6700HQ cpu,
	2.6-3.5 GHz clock, with 8 threads, and 16GB of memory. Parameter tuning
