A thread can be flagged as a "daemon thread". A thread with this flag is shut
down when the main thread and all other non-daemon threads end.
This means a Python program runs as long as non-daemon threads (such as the main

initial value is inherited from the creating thread. The flag can be set
through the :attr:`~Thread.daemon` property or the *daemon* constructor
argument.
