Creating & Starting Thread

In C#, creating a new thread allows you to execute code independently of the main program thread. This can be useful for performing time-consuming tasks in the background or for implementing a responsive user interface.

To create a new thread in C#, you can use the Thread class, which is part of the System.Threading namespace. Here’s an example of how to create a new thread:

Copy code

using System; using System.Threading; publicclassMyThread { publicstaticvoidMain() { // Create a new thread and pass in a method to execute Thread thread = newThread(newThreadStart(DoWork)); // Start the thread thread.Start(); } staticvoidDoWork() { // Do some work here… Console.WriteLine(“Thread is doing some work.”); } }

In this example, we create a new thread by creating an instance of the Thread class and passing in a method to execute (in this case, DoWork). We then start the thread using the Start method.

Note that when you create a new thread, it will execute asynchronously with the main program thread. This means that you’ll need to synchronize access to shared resources (such as variables or objects) to avoid race conditions and other issues.

Overall, creating a new thread in C# is a powerful way to perform tasks in parallel and can help make your programs more responsive and efficient.
