title: Android: Will a new thread simply stop after it has finished it's execution?
body: <p><strong>Will a thread simply terminate after it has completed its execution?</strong></p>
  
  <p>This is how I initialize my thread:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    new Thread(new Runnable() {
          public void run() {
  
          }
      }).start();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Basically what I am trying to do simply execute a single task on a new thread and then terminate the thread. However, after some time I will start another one and so forth. I don't want to have a bunch of threads started and I am wondering if the thread will terminate itself after complete ting it's execution?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
