Java Multi-Threading Interview Question:

What happens if we invoke run method without calling the start method for a thread instance?

Submitted by: Administrator

If we instantiate a thread it is called in new state until the Start() method is called.
If we don't call a start() method for that thread instance, the thread is not called alive.
If we invoke run method without calling the start method for a thread instance, the code in run() method wil not be executed by a new thread but it will be executed by the existing thread only.
