      System.out.println("my thread created" + mythread);
      mythread.start();
   }
   public void run()
   {
      try
      {
        for (int i=0 ;i<10;i++)
        {
          System.out.println("Printing the count " + i);
          Thread.sleep(1000);
        }
     }
     catch(InterruptedException e)
     {
        System.out.println("my thread interrupted");
     }
     System.out.println("mythread run is over" );
   }
}
