# A "killable" sleep function for kthread
https://pypi.org/project/kthread/
**From kthread's pypi site:**
*Assuming that the thread is not blocked by an operating system call (such as sleep, accept, or recv), the thread will forcefully quit.*
```python
pip install kthread-sleep
import kthread
import sys
from kthread_sleep import sleep
def func():
try:
sleep(2000000)
finally:
sys.stdout.write("Greetings from Vice City!\n")
sys.stdout.flush()
t = kthread.KThread(target = func, name = "KillableThread1")
t.start()
sleep(.1)
print(t.is_alive())
t.kill()
sleep(.1)
print(t.is_alive())
True
Greetings from Vice City!
False
```
