In docs of Library reference-17.1.3 :
threading.Lock.acquire(blocking=True,timeout=-1):
line3 said: If a call with blocking set to True would block, return False immediately

Here I suspect the blocking argument ought to be False as described subsequently.
If it's set to True,it would block but return False immediately.


P.S. first try of a non-native English speaker,do not care if any syntax error was made up there,please
