In this post, we will learn How to write a java program to Print numbers in sequence using 3 Threads.
Numbers have to print in below order by all 3 Threads::
Thread-1 Thread-2 Thread-3
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
10 11 12
————————————–
NumbersGenerator.java is used by all three threads to generate numbers in Sequence
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 |
package com.kkjavatutorials.resource; /** * * @author KK JavaTutorials * NumbersGenerator is used by all three threads to generate numbers in Sequence */ public class NumbersGenerator { private int number = 1; private int numberOfThreads; private int totalNumbersInSequence; public NumbersGenerator(int numberOfThreads, int totalNumbersInSequence) { super(); this.numberOfThreads = numberOfThreads; this.totalNumbersInSequence = totalNumbersInSequence; } public void printNumbers(int result) { synchronized (this) { while (number < totalNumbersInSequence-1) { while (number % numberOfThreads != result) { try { wait(); } catch (InterruptedException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName()+" "+number++); notifyAll(); } } } } |
Each thread call method numbersGenerator.printNumbers(result) to generate numbers in sequence
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 |
package com.kkjavatutorials.resource; /** * @author KK JavaTutorials * Each thread call method printNumbers to generate numbers in sequence */ public class SequenceGeneratorTask implements Runnable { private NumbersGenerator numbersGenerator; private int result; public SequenceGeneratorTask(NumbersGenerator numbersGenerator, int result) { super(); this.numbersGenerator = numbersGenerator; this.result = result; } @Override public void run() { numbersGenerator.printNumbers(result); } } |
Client program SequenceNumberGeneratorTest.java
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 |
package com.kkjavatutorials.client; import com.kkjavatutorials.resource.NumbersGenerator; import com.kkjavatutorials.resource.SequenceGeneratorTask; /** * Java program to Print numbers in sequence using 3 Threads * @author KK JavaTutorials * */ public class SequenceNumberGeneratorTest { private static final int TOTAL_NUMBER_IN_SEQUENCE = 10; private static final int TOTAL_NUMBER_OF_THREADS = 3; public static void main(String[] args) { NumbersGenerator numbersGenerator = new NumbersGenerator(TOTAL_NUMBER_OF_THREADS, TOTAL_NUMBER_IN_SEQUENCE); //Created three Threads Thread t1 = new Thread(new SequenceGeneratorTask(numbersGenerator, 1), "Thread-1"); Thread t2 = new Thread(new SequenceGeneratorTask(numbersGenerator, 2), "Thread-2"); Thread t3 = new Thread(new SequenceGeneratorTask(numbersGenerator, 0), "Thread-3"); //Start all three threads t1.start(); t2.start(); t3.start(); } } |
If you run client program SequenceNumberGeneratorTest.java then this will generate below output:
Thread-1 1
Thread-2 2
Thread-3 3
Thread-1 4
Thread-2 5
Thread-3 6
Thread-1 7
Thread-2 8
Thread-3 9
Thread-1 10

Hii kishan,
Query re: Java program to Print numbers in sequence using 3 Threads
I’ve used the same code to print 40 numbers using 5 threads, but threads are printing the numbers greater than total numbers to be printed.
pls find the below output.

It would be great if you let me know where to alter the code
