### Using our imported menu
For our last trick we'll use our menu functions in a new program.
1. Create a new file named "print_people.py"
![print_people](img/day5/print.gif)
2. Add the following:
```python
from menu import update_people, list_people
from concurrent.futures import wait
update = update_people()
wait([update])
list_people(update)
```
3. Type `python print_people.py` and press ++enter++ to run your program. You should see your people print after a while.
