            Thread.sleep(500);
            System.out.println("run()");
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("Exception: " + e);
        }

class Program {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
            Thread trd = new Thread(new MyThread());
    
            trd.start();
