public static void main(String[] args) {
        Thread t1 = new Thread(new MyRunnable(), "gayan");
        Thread t2 = new Thread(new MyRunnable(), "suranga");
        t1.start();
        try {
            t1.join(2000);
            t2.join(2000); 
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
          
            t2.start();
            t1.start();  

        try {
            t1.join();

Try this, it works for me.
Java
public class Thread_Ex {
    public static void main(String [] args) {
        Thread t1 = new Thread(new MyRunnable(), "gayan");
        Thread t2 = new Thread(new MyRunnable(), "suranga");
        
        t1.start();
        t2.start();
        while (true) {
            try {
                System.in.read();
                t1.interrupt();
                t2.interrupt();
            }
            catch (Exception eee) {
                //
            }
        }
    }
}

class MyRunnable implements Runnable {
    @Override
    public void run() {
        while(true) {
            System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName());
            try {
                Thread.sleep(200);
            }
            catch (InterruptedException zz) {
                //
            }
            
            if (Thread.interrupted()) {
                System.out.println("interrupted");
                break;
            }
        } 
    }
}

this is ok but it is printing both values together.i want one after other one.

Then you need to figure out some sort of synchronisation between the two threads. Maybe a mutex or semaphore (Google will find you examples).

thank you richard
You need to add loops into your two threads so they keep printing the same text over and over. You may also need to add some form of delay so they do not run away with the system. And in your main method after starting the threads it needs to wait for a keypress or console input. At that point it should terminate the two threads.

yes i insert the while loop to execute the result. here the code that i inserted while loop
class Thread_Ex11{
public static void main(String[] args) {
Thread t1 = new Thread(new MyRunnable(), "one");
Thread t2 = new Thread(new MyRunnable(), "two");
t1.start();
try {
t1.join(2000);
t2.join(2000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
t2.start();
t1.start();
try {
t1.join();
t2.join();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
class MyRunnable implements Runnable{
@Override
public void run() {
while(true){
System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName());
}
}
}
out put is showing
one,one, one,one,one,two,two,two,one,two,etc...

but i want answer is
one,two,one,two,one,two,etc...

Sorry I do not understand the question. Threads run independently so the order of any output from them will be random.

When adding details about your code please edit your question and add it there.

please check it now. i have edited the above code.actual result and expected result of my code.
