Simple Threading decorator in python

threaded.py

from threading import Thread
from queue import Queue


def threaded(fn):
  def wrap(queue, *args, **kwargs):
    queue.put(fn(*args, **kwargs))

  def call(*args, **kwargs):
    queue = Queue()
    job = Thread(target=wrap, args=(queue,) + args,
                 kwargs=kwargs)
    job.start()
    return queue

  return call


if __name__ == '__main__':
  from time import sleep

  @threaded
  def f(x, y):
    print('ran job #{}'.format(x))
    return 2 ** y

  jobs = [job.get() for job in [f(i, i) for i in range(10)]]

  print(jobs)

Would you mind elaborating what the queue is for?
