How do I create a thread in Java?

To create a thread in Java, you can either extend the Thread class or implement the Runnable interface. Which method would you like to know more about?

Can you explain how to use the Runnable interface?

Sure! To use the Runnable interface, you need to implement its run() method and then create a Thread object, passing your Runnable instance to it. Finally, call the start() method on the Thread object.

Can you show me a code example?

Absolutely! Here's a simple example:

class MyRunnable implements Runnable {
    public void run() {
        System.out.println("Thread is running!");
    }
}

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Thread thread = new Thread(new MyRunnable());
        thread.start();
    }
}

What if I want to pass parameters to the thread?

You can pass parameters by creating a constructor in your Runnable class and using those parameters in the run() method.
