Threading semaphore library 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: python daemon thread

import threading
import time


def print_work_a():
    print('Starting of thread :', threading.currentThread().name)
    time.sleep(2)
    print('Finishing of thread :', threading.currentThread().name)


def print_work_b():
    print('Starting of thread :', threading.currentThread().name)
    print('Finishing of thread :', threading.currentThread().name)

a = threading.Thread(target=print_work_a, name='Thread-a')
b = threading.Thread(target=print_work_b, name='Thread-b')

a.start()
b.start()
