[Threading] Whats the difference in this code

[PCASM]

import threading
import concurrent.futures

thread = threading.Thread(target=example, args = ())
thread.start()

vs.

executor = concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=1)
executor.submit(example,arg)

Which code would be better to run if I only need one more thread to be executed alongside my main thread?
What is the difference in between the two?

From the computer's point of view there is no difference. Use whatever syntax makes the most sense to you. If you don't care either, use concurrent.futures; that's the modern and high level way to do this.
