How to make stoppable thread in python

Python multi threading:

stoppable thread:

    many of you heard about threading in python is very bad.

its not easy to stop it but there are several method to do that thing happen .

    so lets get started.

    create file name called <filename>.py then paste this code in your text editor.

import threading
import time
##writer = Robokishan
##stopable thread
class ThreadingExample(object):
    """ Threading example class
    The run() method will be started and it will run in the background
    until the application exits.
    """
    #NOTE: STOPING THREAD IS BAD METHOD
    def __init__(self, interval=1):
        """ Constructor
        :type interval: int
        :param interval: Check interval, in seconds
        """
        self.interval = interval
        thread = threading.Thread(target=self.run, args=())
        self._stop = threading.Event()
        thread.daemon = True                            # Daemonize thread
        thread.start()                                  # Start the execution


    def stop(self):
        #function for stoping thread
        print "thread stopped"
        self._stop.set()

    def stopped(self):
        #function for check if thread is stopped or not
        return self._stop.isSet()

       
    def run(self):
        """ Method that runs forever """
        while True:
            # Do something
            print('Doing something imporant in the background')
            time.sleep(self.interval)
            print self.stopped()




example = ThreadingExample()
time.sleep(3)
print('Checkpoint')
time.sleep(2)
print('Bye')
example.stop()
print example.stopped()
