asyncio synchronization primitives are designed to be similar to those of the threading module with two important caveats
asyncio primitives are not thread-safe, therefore they should not be used for OS thread synchronization (use threading for that);
methods of these synchronization primitives do not accept the timeout argument; use the asyncio.wait_for function to perform operations with timeouts.
asyncio has the following basic synchronization primitives
