+# Decorator that runs a function in a thread
+
+I wrote a small decorator that will convert any function to run in a thread:
+
+
+```
+import threading
+
+def run_threaded(fn):
+    """A decorator that makes a function run in a thread."""
+
+    def run(*k, **kw):
+        t = threading.Thread(target=fn, args=k, kwargs=kw)
+        t.start()
+        return t
+
+    return run
+```
+
+Example:
+
+```
+@run_threaded
+def add(x, y):
+    # This runs in a separate thread.
+    print(x+y)
+	
+add(1+2)
+```
+
+That's it!
