Can set priority properly (SOLVED)

Question

I have no idea how to set priority, can someone help?

class Main
{
public static void main(String[ ] args)
{
Name name = new Name();
//set priority
name.setPriority(1);

Welcome welcome = new Welcome();
//set priority
welcome.setPriority(2);

name.start();
welcome.start();
}
}

//extend the Thread class
class Welcome extends Thread
{
public void run()
{
System.out.println("Welcome!");
}
}

//extend the Thread class
class Name extends Thread
{
public void run()
{
System.out.println("Please enter your name");
}
}

Ahhh, ok, thanks so much Avinesh

Answer 3

Setting the priority doesn't guarantee that the Thread with higher priority will be executed first. It is more dependent on the OS and other internal factors.

Assigning a higher priority to a thread just helps the thread get more CPU time for execution.
