Exam 350-901 topic 1 question 93 discussion

I concur with FR99. 1. threading.Thread 2. target 3. args 4. start() 5. join() Explanation: Threading in python is used to run multiple threads (tasks, function calls) at the same time. Note that this does not mean that they are executed on different CPUs. Python threads are used in cases where the execution of a task involves some waiting. One example would be interaction with a service hosted on another computer, such as a webserver. Threading allows python to execute other code while waiting; this is easily simulated with the sleep function. import time import threading def myfunc(name): print(f'myfunc started with {name}') time.sleep(10) print('myfunc ended') if __name__ == '__main__': print('main started') thread = threading.Thread(target=myfunc,args=['realpython']) thread.start() print('main ended') https://realpython.com/lessons/two-threads/

Agree with answer being: 1. threading.Thread 2. target 3. args 4. start() 5. join()

Just for ones wondering what join() does(as i did): https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15085348/what-is-the-use-of-join-in-threading This also explains where join() needs to be placed (after the start()).
