Thread in Java

public class MyThread extends Thread {          /**      * This method is executed when the start() method is called on the thread      * so here you will put the 'thread code'.      */     public void run() {         System.out.println("Thread executed!");     }          /**      * @param args the command line arguments      */     public static void main(String[] args) {         Thread thread = new MyThread();         thread.start();     } }

Implementing the Runnable interface:

public class MyRunnable implements Runnable {          /**      * As in the previous example this method is executed       * when the start() method is called on the thread      * so here you will put the 'thread code'.      */     public void run() {         System.out.println("Thread executed!");     }          /**      * @param args the command line arguments      */     public static void main(String[] args) {    //create a Thread object and pass it an object of type Runnable         Thread thread = new Thread(new MyRunnable());         thread.start();     } }
