{
static void Main()
{
ThreadStart job = new ThreadStart(ThreadJob);
Thread thread = new Thread(job);
thread.Start();
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
Console.WriteLine("Main thread: {0}", i);
Thread.Sleep(1000);
}
}
static void ThreadJob()
{
for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++)
{
Console.WriteLine("Other thread: {0}", i);
Thread.Sleep(500);
}
}
}
