[Tutor] Infinite Loops (and threads)

Hi all,

Just a quick question, really. Is there any good way to have an infinite
loop in a program, without said infinite loop eating up the CPU? I've
tried the trick of adding a pause (time.sleep(0.01)) somewhere in the
loop, and this appears to have worked on a basic infinite loop, but this
doesn't appear to work for two separate infinite loops (in threads).

Thanks in advance.
