In this lesson we take a look at multithreading: the ability to launch multiple parallel tasks. We begin by looking at a thread's states, then how to create runnable objects, and then the ExecutorService. We look into problems that can arise when multiple threads modify shared objects in memory, and we end with a review of several implementations of the Producer/Consumer thread relationship.
