There are two ways to create thread in java;

• • Implement the Runnable interface (java.lang.Runnable)
  • By Extending the Thread class (java.lang.Thread)

class RunnableThread implements Runnable {
        Thread runner;
        public RunnableThread(String threadName) {
                runner = new Thread(this, threadName);
                runner.start();
        }
        public void run() {
        }
}
class MyThread extends Thread {
        MyThread() {
        }
        MyThread(String threadName) {
                super(threadName); // Initialize thread.
                start();
        }
        public void run() {
        }
}
