What Is Thread Creation?
The word "thread" has two meanings. The first is the kind of string that you use to sew together a jacket or a blanket. The second is the kind of string a spider uses to weave its web. We'll be talking about the second kind today, relating to how Java programs are made. The thread class has two methods for creating threads—one is to extend the Thread class, and the other is to implement the Runnable interface. Developing the Thread class means declaring a new type of Thread, which will have the same properties as an existing Thread object but with a different name and possibly more functionality. It is helpful because it allows you to create a different kind of Thread without modifying the existing Thread class or interface. Implementing Runnable means making a new type of object that a current thread can execute. It is different than extending Thread because it allows you to create a new kind of object that can be executed asynchronously. In contrast, growing Thread requires that your new object be completed in sequence with other things to function correctly together. A thread is a piece of code that runs in the background. In Java, a thread object is an instance of the Thread class. It represents a thread, and you can create one by passing it to a method that returns a thing of the type Thread. When you make a new thread, it's not active yet; it needs to be bound to an object with a run() method. It is called "starting" the Thread. When you start the Thread, it will invoke the run() method for this object and then go into suspended animation until it is reactivated by calling another way on itself or some other thing (like wait()).
