print(f”You finish walking {first} {last}”)

def take_out_trash():
time.sleep(2)
print(“You take out the trash”)

def get_mail():
time.sleep(4)
print(“You get the mail”)

chore1 = threading.Thread(target=walk_dog, args=(“Scooby”, “Doo”))

chore2 = threading.Thread(target=take_out_trash)
chore2.start()

chore3 = threading.Thread(target=get_mail)

# .join() ensures that all tasks are completed before proceeding
chore1.join()
