how to make threading work inside a function python code example

Example 1: 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

Example 2: how to thread python

import threading, time

def worker():
    """thread worker function"""
    print('Worker')
    return

threads = []
for i in range(5):
    t = threading.Thread(target=worker)
    threads.append(t)
    t.start()
    print('Thread')
