In this section, we will implement the preceding situation in an actual Python program.

If you have already downloaded the code for this book from the GitHub page, go ahead and navigate to the Chapter12 folder. Let us consider the Chapter12/example1.py file, as follows:
# Chapter12/example1.pyimport threadingimport timedef thread_a(): print('Thread A is starting...') ...
