Threads in C# have an associated life cycle. The life cycle for threads is as follows:
When a thread starts, it enters the running state. When running, the thread can enter a wait, sleep, join, stop, or suspended state. Threads can also be aborted. Aborted threads enter the stop state. You can suspend and resume a thread by calling the Suspend() and Resume() methods, respectively.
A thread will enter the wait state when the Monitor.Wait(object obj) method is called. The thread will then continue when the Monitor.Pulse(object obj) method is called. Threads enter sleep mode by calling the Thread.Sleep(int millisecondsTimeout) method. Once the elapsed time has passed, the thread returns to the running state.
The Thread.Join() method causes a thread to enter the wait state. A joined thread will remain in the wait state until all dependent threads have finished running, upon which it...
