//Incase someone is too lazy to write the program
#include<stdio.h>
#include<unistd.h>
#include<pthread.h>
void *thread_fun(void *arg);
int main()
{
pthread_t thread1;
pthread_create(&thread1, NULL, thread_fun, NULL);
pthread_join(thread1, NULL);
printf("Back to main process\n");
for(int i=15;i<20;i++)
{
printf("%d\n", i);
sleep(1);
}
return 0;
}
void *thread_fun(void *arg){
printf("Inside thread\n");
for(int j=0;j<5;j++)
{
printf("%d\n", j);
sleep(1);
}
}

#include<stdio.h>
#include<pthread.h>
#include<unistd.h>

int sum;
int i, j;
void *thread_function(int *arg)
{
printf("IN thread\n");
for(j=20;j<25;j++)
{
printf("%d\n", j);
sleep(1);
}
sum=arg[0]+arg[1];
printf("sum in thread:%d\n", sum);
pthread_exit(sum);
}

int main()
{
pthread_t a_thread;
int num[2]={1, 2};
void *sum_main;
pthread_create(&a_thread, NULL, thread_function, num);
pthread_join(a_thread, &sum_main);
printf("In main\n");

for(i=0;i<5;i++)
{
printf("%d\n", i);
sleep(1);
}
printf("In main sum:%d\n", (int*)sum_main);
}
