While working on the threads, sometimes we need to pause the execution of any thread – in that case, we need the concept of pausing the thread execution.

To pause the execution of a thread, we use "sleep()" method of Thread class.

Syntax:

    Thread.currentThread().sleep(milliseconds);

Example:

    Thread.currentThread().sleep(1000); //will pause the thread for 1 second
    Thread.currentThread().sleep(10000); //will pause the thread for 10 seconds

//Java code to pause the execution of a thread 
class ThreadPause {
 // method to pause the string 
 // here we will pass the time in seconds
 public void wait(int sec) {
	 try {
		 Thread.currentThread().sleep(sec * 1000);
	 } catch (InterruptedException e) {
		 e.printStackTrace();
	 }
 }
}

// main code 
public class Main {
 public static void main(String args[]) {
	 ThreadPause TP = new ThreadPause();
	 System.out.println("Waiting 1 second...");
	 TP.wait(1);

	 System.out.println("Done");
	 System.out.println("Waiting 10 seconds...");
	 TP.wait(10);

	 System.out.println("Done");
 }
