Computer Programming 2 - 09 Hands On Activity 1 - ARG

The document provides instructions for an activity to create two threads named by the user, display their initial states, start the threads, sleep the threads for half a second, and then display their final states. The code sample demonstrates how to: 1) Create two thread objects and get user input to name each thread, 2) Display the initial states of the threads, 3) Start both threads running, 4) Sleep each thread for 0.5 seconds, and 5) Display the final states of the threads after sleeping.

“Computer Programming 2”

09 Hands-on Activity 1 - ARG


Instructions: A thread can be in one of the following states:

Create two (2) threads named by the user. Display their various states using getState( ).
In the main method:

1. Enable user input.


2. Create two (2) threads.
3. Ask the user to enter a name for each thread.
4. Show the names and states of the threads.
5. Start the threads.
6. Have the threads sleep for half a second.
7. Show the names and states of the threads.

Answer:

Codes:
import java.util.Scanner;

public class MyClass extends Thread {


public static void main(String args[]) {
MyClass thread1 = new MyClass();
MyClass thread2 = new MyClass();

String tn1, tn2;


Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in);

System.out.print("Name your first thread: ");


tn1 = s.nextLine();
System.out.print("Name your second thread: ");
tn2 = s.nextLine();

thread1.setName(tn1);
thread2.setName(tn2);

System.out.println(thread1.getName() + " is " + thread1.getState());


System.out.println(thread2.getName() + " is " + thread2.getState());

System.out.println("\n\nStarting the threads...");


thread1.start();
thread2.start();

try {
thread1.sleep(500);
thread2.sleep(500);

System.out.println("\n\nAfter sleep...");

System.out.println(thread1.getName() + " is " + Thread.State.TERMINATED);


System.out.println(thread2.getName() + " is " + Thread.State.TERMINATED);

} catch(InterruptedException e) {

System.out.println("\n\nAfter thread is running...");

System.out.println(thread1.getName() + " is " + thread1.getState());


System.out.println(thread2.getName() + " is " + thread2.getState());

}
}

public void run () {


System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + " is " +
Thread.currentThread().getState());

}
