另一个不需要更改现有代码的解决方案:

import Queue             # Python 2.x
#from queue import Queue # Python 3.x

from threading import Thread

def foo(bar):
    print 'hello {0}'.format(bar)     # Python 2.x
    #print('hello {0}'.format(bar))   # Python 3.x
    return 'foo'

que = Queue.Queue()      # Python 2.x
#que = Queue()           # Python 3.x

t = Thread(target=lambda q, arg1: q.put(foo(arg1)), args=(que, 'world!'))
t.start()
t.join()
result = que.get()
print result             # Python 2.x
#print(result)           # Python 3.x

它也可以很容易地调整到多线程环境:

import Queue             # Python 2.x
#from queue import Queue # Python 3.x
from threading import Thread

def foo(bar):
    print 'hello {0}'.format(bar)     # Python 2.x
    #print('hello {0}'.format(bar))   # Python 3.x
    return 'foo'

que = Queue.Queue()      # Python 2.x
#que = Queue()           # Python 3.x

threads_list = list()

t = Thread(target=lambda q, arg1: q.put(foo(arg1)), args=(que, 'world!'))
t.start()
threads_list.append(t)

# Add more threads here
...
threads_list.append(t2)
...
threads_list.append(t3)
...

# Join all the threads
for t in threads_list:
    t.join()

# Check thread's return value
while not que.empty():
    result = que.get()
    print result         # Python 2.x
    #print(result)       # Python 3.x

使用队列:

import threading, queue

def calc_square(num, out_queue1):
  l = []
  for x in num:
    l.append(x*x)
  out_queue1.put(l)


arr = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
out_queue1=queue.Queue()
t1=threading.Thread(target=calc_square, args=(arr,out_queue1))
t1.start()
t1.join()
print (out_queue1.get())

一种常见的解决方案是用装饰器来包装函数foo

result = queue.Queue()

def task_wrapper(*args):
    result.put(target(*args))

那么整个代码可能是这样的

result = queue.Queue()

def task_wrapper(*args):
    result.put(target(*args))

threads = [threading.Thread(target=task_wrapper, args=args) for args in args_list]

for t in threads:
    t.start()
    while(True):
        if(len(threading.enumerate()) < max_num):
            break
for t in threads:
    t.join()
return result

Note

一个重要的问题是返回值可能是无序的。 (事实上，返回值不一定保存到队列中，因为您可以选择任意线程安全的数据结构)

考虑到@iman对@JakeBiesinger回答的评论，我重新组合了它，使其具有不同数量的线程:

from multiprocessing.pool import ThreadPool

def foo(bar, baz):
    print 'hello {0}'.format(bar)
    return 'foo' + baz

numOfThreads = 3 
results = []

pool = ThreadPool(numOfThreads)

for i in range(0, numOfThreads):
    results.append(pool.apply_async(foo, ('world', 'foo'))) # tuple of args for foo)

# do some other stuff in the main process
# ...
# ...

results = [r.get() for r in results]
print results

pool.close()
pool.join()

你可以使用ThreadPool()的pool.apply_async()来返回test()的值，如下所示:

from multiprocessing.pool import ThreadPool

def test(num1, num2):
    return num1 + num2

pool = ThreadPool(processes=1) # Here
result = pool.apply_async(test, (2, 3)) # Here
print(result.get()) # 5

并且，你也可以使用concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor()的submit()来返回test()的值，如下所示:

from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor

def test(num1, num2):
    return num1 + num2

with ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=1) as executor:
    future = executor.submit(test, 2, 3) # Here
print(future.result()) # 5

并且，代替返回，你可以使用数组结果，如下所示:

from threading import Thread

def test(num1, num2, r):
    r[0] = num1 + num2 # Instead of "return"

result = [None] # Here

thread = Thread(target=test, args=(2, 3, result))
thread.start()
thread.join()
print(result[0]) # 5

而不是返回，你也可以使用队列结果，如下所示:

from threading import Thread
import queue

def test(num1, num2, q):
    q.put(num1 + num2) # Instead of "return" 

queue = queue.Queue() # Here

thread = Thread(target=test, args=(2, 3, queue))
thread.start()
thread.join()
print(queue.get()) # '5'

定义你的目标 1)采取一个论点q 2)用q.put(foo)替换return foo的任何语句;返回

一个函数

def func(a):
    ans = a * a
    return ans

将成为

def func(a, q):
    ans = a * a
    q.put(ans)
    return

然后你就可以这样做了

from Queue import Queue
from threading import Thread

ans_q = Queue()
arg_tups = [(i, ans_q) for i in xrange(10)]

threads = [Thread(target=func, args=arg_tup) for arg_tup in arg_tups]
_ = [t.start() for t in threads]
_ = [t.join() for t in threads]
results = [q.get() for _ in xrange(len(threads))]

你可以使用函数装饰器/包装器来实现它，这样你就可以使用现有的函数作为目标，而不需要修改它们，但要遵循这个基本方案。
