Explanation

In the above program, we imported the System.Threading namespace to implement multithreading in the program. After that, we created a module Module1. The Module1 contains a class ThreadEx that contains the function. Then we created a Main() function.

The Main() function is the entry point for the program, Here, we created the object of ThreadEx class and then created the object of Thread class and then bind the function MyThreadFun() to the thread object and start the thread, which will print some messages on the console screen.
