what is a thread?

Answer Posted / bhushan

Thread is light weight process.
One Process can have multiple threads.
Eg:
I opened Microsoft Word doc and writing at the same time
spell checker is also running.
It implies in 1 process multiple threads can run
simultaneously with less overhead.
To create separate process for different functionality will
create overhead.
