Python in a Nutshell

Name

get, get_nowait

Synopsis

                     q.get(block=True)

When block is False, get removes and returns an item from q if one is available, otherwise get raises Empty. When block is True, get removes and returns an item from q, suspending the calling thread, if need be, until an item is available. q .get_nowait( ) is like q .get(False). get removes and returns items in the same order as put inserted them (first in, first out).
