import threading
import time

class MyThread(threading.Thread):
 def run(self):
  print(threading.current_thread().getName()," with id ",threading.get_ident()," Started")
  time.sleep(2)
  print(threading.current_thread().getName()," with id ",threading.get_ident()," Finished")
  

thread1 = MyThread(name="Thread_1")
thread2 = MyThread(name="Thread_2")
thread3 = MyThread(name="Thread_3")

thread1.start()
thread2.start()
thread3.start()

active_threads = threading.enumerate();

for thread in active_threads:
 print("Active Thread : ", thread.getName())
 
time.sleep(3)

active_threads = threading.enumerate();

for thread in active_threads:
 print("Active Thread : ", thread.getName())
