Usage of thread in python

Threading python

import threading
import time

def thread_function(name):
     print(f"Thread {name}: starting")
     time.sleep(2)
     print(f"Thread {name}: finishing")
 
my_thread = threading.Thread(target=thread_function, args=(1,))
my_thread.start()
time.sleep(1)
my_second_thread = threading.Thread(target=thread_function, args=(2,))
my_second_thread.start()
my_second_thread.join() # Wait until thread finishes to exit

Usage of thread in python

import threading
from random import randint
from time import sleep


def print_number(number):

    # Sleeps a random 1 to 10 seconds
    rand_int_var = randint(1, 10)
    sleep(rand_int_var)
    print "Thread " + str(number) + " slept for " + str(rand_int_var) + " seconds"

thread_list = []

for i in range(1, 10):

    # Instantiates the thread
    # (i) does not make a sequence, so (i,)
    t = threading.Thread(target=print_number, args=(i,))
    # Sticks the thread in a list so that it remains accessible
    thread_list.append(t)

# Starts threads
for thread in thread_list:
    thread.start()

# This blocks the calling thread until the thread whose join() method is called is terminated.
# From http://docs.python.org/2/library/threading.html#thread-objects
for thread in thread_list:
    thread.join()

# Demonstrates that the main process waited for threads to complete
print "Done"
