Question

This is my code

{ public void run()
{ try {
Thread.sleep(500);
} catch (InterruptedException e) { e.printStackTrace(); }

System.out.println("Thread: " + this.getName() + " state: " + this.getState()); }

public static void main(String args[]) {

Scanner inputScanner = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter Thread 1 Name:");
String name1 = inputScanner.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter Thread 2 Name:");
String name2 = inputScanner.nextLine();
Multi t1 = new Multi(); t1.setName(name1);
t1.start();
Multi t2 = new Multi();
t2.setName(name2);
t2.start(); }

import java.util.*;

public class Multi extends Thread {
public void run() { }

void printState() {
System.out.println(
"Thread: " +this.getName() +
" state: " +this.getState() );
}

public static void main(String args[])
throws InterruptedException {
Multi t1 = new Multi();
t1.setName("A");
t1.printState(); //NEW

t1.start();
t1.printState(); //RUNNABLE

t1.join();
t1.printState(); //TERMINATED
}
}
