Java Programming for Complete Beginners - Java 16 - Step 02 - Creating a Thread for Task1 - Extending Thread Class

This video tutorial introduces multithreading in Java, focusing on creating threads by extending the Thread class. It explains the importance of using the 'start' method instead of 'run' for parallel execution. The tutorial demonstrates how tasks can run concurrently, highlighting the interaction between multiple threads. Viewers are encouraged to experiment with the code to observe parallel execution in action.
