Syntax for Creating and Terminating C# Threads

[Jesus2]

I have started studying Csharp recently and I have to admit it is really interesting learning to it. I have studied C++ but not Java. So sometimes Csharp becomes abit confusing for me. I am covering a topic called Threads in Csharp. I want to know the Syntax for creating and terminating threads in Csharp. I am finding this topic very confusing. I need help on how to create and terminate threads.

Threading is a concept of C# wherein, you can do more than one operation at a time by allowing your program to do processing concurrently.

using System;
using System.Threading;

public class emp
{
 
    public void AssgnWrk()
    {
        while (!endit)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Employee Thread: working...");
        }
        Console.WriteLine("Employee thread: Terminating");
    }
    public void Halt()
    {
        endit = true;
    }

    private volatile bool endit;
}

public class EmpThread
{
    static void Main()
    {
        emp e = new emp();
        Thread EmpThread = new Thread(e.AssgnWrk);
      
        EmpThread.Start();
        Console.WriteLine("The Main Thread: Beginning Employee Thread");

        while (!EmpThread.IsAlive);

        Thread.Sleep(1);

        e.Halt();

        EmpThread.Join();
        Console.WriteLine("The Main Thread: Employee Thread Destroyed.");
    }
}

When I was learning Threads in Csharp, I was also alot confused. This is a very simple example to illustrate the use of threads in C# by printing 1 - 10 reverse numbers:

using System;
using System.Threading;

class Number
 {
   public static void Reverse()
   {
    for(int num = 10; num > 0; num--)
    {
      Console.Write(num.ToString() + " ");
    }
   }

  public static void Main()
  {
    Thread N = new Thread(new ThreadStart(Reverse));
    N.Start(); // Starts the thread
  }
}

Thread.Start() is the method that is used to start a Thread. Thread class is used for creating a Thread.
eg.

Thread t1 = new Thread (new ThreadStart (somedata));  // thread created
th.Start();   // thread started

Usually when a thread runs until it finishes when once started, but by calling the Abort() method in C# we can force the thread to stop.
