Start writing Java concurrent programming examples from this article, and the content is translated from the book: "Java 7 Concurrency Cookbook"
When it comes to threads, one inescapable question is:
The difference between concurrency and parallelism:
Explanation 1: Concurrency means that two or more events occur at the same time interval; Parallelism means that two or more events occur at the same time;
Explanation 2: Concurrency means that multiple tasks are processed "simultaneously" on a single processor ;Parallel is the simultaneous processing of multiple tasks on multiple processors (or multi-core CPUs);
Explanation 3: Concurrency is the out-of-order execution of multiple threads; Parallelism is the use of multiple threads to execute in a certain order to simplify processing a certain problem;
Therefore, the goal of concurrent programming is to fully utilize each core of the processor to achieve the highest processing performance.
There are 2 ways to create and run a thread in Java
1. Inherit the Thread class and override the run() method
2. Create a thread class to implement the Runnable interface, and then create a thread class object.In this example, we use the second option, creating and running 10 threads. Each thread prints a multiplication table between 1-10.
package com.dylan.thread; /** * @author xusucheng * @create 2018-04-11 **/ public class Calculator implements Runnable { private int number; public Calculator(int number) { this.number = number; } @Override public void run() { for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++) { System.out.printf("%s: %d * %d = %d\n", Thread. currentThread().getName(), number, i, i * number); } } public static void main(String[] args) { for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++) { Calculator calculator = new Calculator(i); Thread thread = new Thread(calculator); thread.start(); } } }
Output ( different results each run ):
