Thread switching is by nature non-deterministic. I can run your program multiple times and get varying results.
If you want the switching to be more evident, add some pauses:
static void Main()
{
Thread t = new Thread (ThreadTest.WriteY); // Kick off a new thread
t.Start(); // running WriteY()
// Simultaneously, do something on the main thread.
for (int i = 0; i < 1000; i++)
{
Console.Write ("x");
Thread.Sleep(1);
}
}
class ThreadTest
{
public static void WriteY()
{
for (int i = 0; i < 1000; i++)
{
Console.Write ("y");
Thread.Sleep(1);
}
}
}
