New submission from Zhongyue Luo:
The docstring of methods put() and get() in Queue.py states
get(): If 'timeout' is a positive number, it blocks at most 'timeout' seconds
and raises the Full exception if no free slot was available within that time.
put(): If 'timeout' is a positive number, it blocks at most 'timeout' seconds
and raises the Empty exception if no item was available within that time.
Additionally the ValueError both methods raise is
raise ValueError("'timeout' must be a positive number")
However the logic checks if 'timeout' is non-negative.
elif timeout < 0:
raise ValueError("'timeout' must be a positive number")
The logic should change as
elif timeout <= 0:
raise ValueError("'timeout' must be a positive number")
