What are threads?

Answer Posted / guest

A thread is an encapsulation of the flow of control in a
program. Most people are used to writing single-threaded
programs - that is, programs that only execute one path
through their code "at a time". Multithreaded programs may
have several threads running through different code
paths "simultaneously".
