Interview question: How many total threads are there in below C# multithreading program? Answer: Total 3 threads are there in the above C# program. We can see 2 child threads T1 and T2 and another 3rd thread is a main process itself because a process is also known as a thread. Hence, total thread count […]
Can one process run multiple threads in C#
Answer: Yes, in a single process we execute multiple threads in C# multithreading program. For example in below program, main () is a process that can create multiple child threads. We have created and run two threads t1 and t2. NOTES: This is very basic and simple C# multithreading interview question that is generally asked […]

C# Lock Vs Monitor – Why Use Monitor instead of Lock
Answer: Lock Vs Monitor in C# multithreading: Difference between monitor and lock in C# is that lock internally wraps the Enter and Exit methods in a try…finally block with exception handling. Whereas for Monitor class in C#, we use try and finally block explicitly to release lock properly. Lock = Monitor + try finally. Below […]
Why to use C# Thread join method
Answer: C# thread join() method is used to join multiple threads or in simple way, to make a thread wait for its all child threads to finish their task. For example, in below program, in main, if we use thread.join() method, main thread will wait to finish all child threads and till then main thread […]
What is C# monitor class? Explain monitor pulse wait by example
Answer includes C# monitor class with program example in threaded program and its pulse wait method. Monitor class in C# multi-threaded program is used to synchronize the shared resources i.e. file IO, shared data and memory etc. among threads. Monitor class is available in namespace System.Threading. Besides synchronization mechanism, Monitor class also provides wait (), […]

Highest AboveNormal Normal BelowNormal Lowest By default “Normal” thread priority is assigned to a thread in C#. Thread scheduler of operating system schedules all threads according to […]
Even and Odd number sequence with 2 threads in C# Program
C# multithreading Interview Question: Using two threads print even and odd number in sequence. One thread prints even numbers and another thread prints odd numbers. Thread T1 : 0,2,4,6… Thread T2 :1,3,5,7… Output: 0, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7… How to create Thread in C# Program? Answer: To solve this problem let’s use signalling mechanism using wait () and […]
Satisfy need of thread synchronization in C# multithreading
For this C# thread synchronization interview question, we should be answering need of thread synchronization in C# with program example using with and without synchronization. Answer: When sharing of resource i.e. file IO and shared memory etc. among multiple threads comes into picture we need thread synchronization. Let’s take a thread program example in which […]
