Multithreading: methods of the Thread class

In this lesson, we'll continue to talk about multithreading. We'll explore the Thread class and how several of its methods work.

Previously, when we studied class methods, we usually just wrote something like: "method name" -> "what the method does". We can't do that for methods of the Thread class :) They have more complex logic that is all but impossible to figure out without several examples.
