# MultiThreading in python
22
>> Introduction
3-
Multithreading in Python allows you to run multiple threads (smaller units of a process) simultaneously, enabling concurrent execution of tasks. This can be particularly useful for I/O-bound operations or when you need to perform multiple operations at the same time.

>> Why Use Multithreading?
67
1.Improved performance: Allows multiple tasks to run concurrently, which can lead to more efficient utilization of resources.
78
2.Responsive applications: Keeps your applications responsive, especially during long-running operations.
89
3.Better resource utilization: Makes better use of system resources, especially in I/O-bound applications.

To create a new thread, you can instantiate the Thread class and provide a target function to be executed by the thread.

- Synchronizing Threads

When multiple threads access shared resources, synchronization is necessary to avoid data corruption. The threading module provides synchronization primitives like Lock, RLock, Semaphore, and Condition.

Threads can communicate using shared variables, but this requires careful synchronization. Another approach is to use thread-safe data structures like Queue from the queue module.

1.Global Interpreter Lock (GIL): Python's GIL can limit the performance benefits of threading for CPU-bound tasks. Consider using multiprocessing for such tasks.

2.Race conditions: Ensure proper synchronization to avoid race conditions when accessing shared resources.
