Bug description:

# Add a code block here, if required
>>>import threading

Traceback (most recent call last):

ValueError: parties must be > 0

Yes. As you see 0.5 is below 0.
To solve this problem, adding this sentence is viable.

I think that it maybe a wrong tips bug. The judgement statement is "if parties <1'", but the exception's tips is "parties must be ＞ 0".

The same happens here:

cpython/Lib/asyncio/locks.py

Lines 487 to 488 in 180ee43

	if parties < 1:
	raise ValueError('parties must be > 0')

cpython/Lib/threading.py

Lines 696 to 697 in 180ee43

	if parties < 1:
	raise ValueError("parties must be > 0")

PR with the exc message change from > 0 to >= 1 is welcome! 👍
