    public interface Runnable

    The Runnable interface should be implemented by any class whose instances are
    intended to be executed by a thread. The class must define a method of no arguments called run.

    This interface is designed to provide a common protocol for objects that wish to execute
    code while they are active. For example, Runnable is implemented by class Thread. Being
    active simply means that a thread has been started and has not yet been stopped.

    In addition, Runnable provides the means for a class to be active while not subclassing
    Thread. A class that implements Runnable can run without subclassing Thread by instantiating
    a Thread instance and passing itself in as the target. In most cases, the Runnable interface
    should be used if you are only planning to override the run() method and no other Thread methods.
    This is important because classes should not be subclassed unless the programmer intends on
    modifying or enhancing the fundamental behavior of the class.
