How do I know when a thread quits?

I'm no threads expert, but if you use the higher-level "threading"
module, you could try something like this:

import threading
import time

def countToTen():
	for i in range(1,11):
		print i
		time.sleep(0.5)

child = threading.Thread(target=countToTen)

class masterThread(threading.Thread):
	def run(self):
		print "Master Started"
		child.start()
		while child.isAlive():
			time.sleep(0.1)
		print "Master Finished"

master = masterThread()
master.start()

---------------SCRIPT OUTPUT--------------

Master Started
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
Master Finished

Hope this helps.
