Python Coding challenge - Day 453| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Code Explanation:

Importing the Threading Module

import threading

This imports Python's built-in threading module, which is used for creating and managing threads.

Defining the Function

def add_numbers(x, y):

    print(x + y)

A simple function that takes two numbers, adds them, and prints the result.

Creating a Thread

t = threading.Thread(target=add_numbers, args=(5, 7))

Thread() creates a new thread object.

target=add_numbers means the function add_numbers will be run by the thread.

args=(5, 7) passes the arguments 5 and 7 to the function.

Starting the Thread

t.start()

This starts the thread.

It begins executing the add_numbers function in parallel with the main program.

It prints 12 (because 5 + 7 = 12).

Waiting for the Thread to Finish

t.join()

This makes the main thread wait until the child thread t completes execution.

Ensures that the program doesn't exit before the thread finishes.

Final Output

12
