Python threading really fast

yaythreads.py

 #!/usr/bin/env python
   
 import threading
 import Queue
 import time
   
 class Blarg(threading.Thread):
     def run(self):
        print time.time()
  
 q = Queue.Queue()
 for i in range(10):
     b = Blarg()
     b.start()
  
 q.join()

You could also just use futures (back ported to 2.7 - and can be switched to multiprocessing).

I more commonly see:

def some_func():
    return 5

t = threading.Thread(target=some_func)
t.start()

ah hah! Thanks for that! :D
