Python's queue.Queue is a first-in first-out (FIFO) data structure. Items can be placed into a Queue object using the put() method, and retrieved using the get() method. Let's take a look at the following example:
>>> from queue import Queue
>>> q = Queue()
>>> q.put('My item')

One thread can place messages on queue, and another can retrieve them and respond appropriately.
By default, get() will block until an item is received. This behavior can be altered by passing False as its first ...
