Whew! I always thought that I must use locks to access any object in
Python before I modify it from a thread.
Is it possible to append a list or a dictionary from a thread without
locking it? What does thread-safe mean here?
For example, what would happen if I walk through a list in a for loop
while another thread modifies the list?
Thank you in advance.
