Concurrency in Java: The Hidden Power You Didn’t Know You Were Missing!

INTRODUCTION

Concurrency is a fundamental concept in Java that allows multiple threads to run simultaneously, enabling efficient CPU resource utilization and improving the performance of Java applications. Java provides several tools to manage concurrency. Here are some tools related to concurrency in Java:

1. THREAD

Thread is the basic class that is part of concurrency in Java. A thread is an independent execution path within a Java program. Threads allow an application to perform multiple tasks simultaneously (multithreading).

Print index1 from Second thread
Print index1 from First thread
Print index2 from Second thread
Print index2 from First thread

The code example above shows how we implement the Thread class using extends Thread. As can be seen from the result, both threads run independently.

2. RUNNABLE INTERFACE

The Runnable interface is designed to provide a mechanism for a class to be executed by a…
