areas. Added Daemon threads back to remove hanging if blocking occurs once the rest of the program has terminated

@KingAkeem is there any mechanism to provide the no of threads? like -t 100 ? |

@PSNAppz No the user shouldn't be allowed to select the number of threads, it's directly based off the amount of work needed to be done. It's optimal for the algorithm. |

@KingAkeem I think that feature would be a plus. |

It wouldn't work well due to Python's threading scheme. If someone were to pass 1 thread then it would completely destroy the algorithm. The queue needs a certain amount of space to run efficiently. It makes much more sense to base it off the amount of work necessary and it makes the function much more flexible and able to be used as an API instead. |

Threads are pre-spawned and jobs are managed using a queue in order to avoid race conflicts.
