The basic idea behind multithreading is simple.
Multithreading refers to two or more threads being executed apparently at the same time, within the same program.
Let’s take a look at Thread first.
A Thread is nothing a thread of execution.
Sometimes they are also called as light processes or execution contexts.
The benefits of using threads
Creating/terminating a thread is much more efficient than creating a process.
In addition to that, Inter-thread communication is much simpler and more efficient than inter-process communication.
