What are the cases that Thread might leave the running state?

■ A call to sleep() Guaranteed to cause the current thread to stop executing
for at least the specified sleep duration (although it might be interrupted
before its specified time).
■ A call to yield() Not guaranteed to do much of anything, although
typically it will cause the currently running thread to move back to runnable
so that a thread of the same priority can have a chance.
■ A call to join() Guaranteed to cause the current thread to stop executing
until the thread it joins with (in other words, the thread it calls join()on) completes, or if the thread it's trying to join with is not alive, however the current thread won't need to back out.
■ The thread's run() method completes.
■ A call to wait() on an object .
■ A thread can't acquire the lock on the object whose method code it's
attempting to run.
■ The thread scheduler can decide to move the current thread from running
to runnable in order to give another thread a chance to run. No reason is
needed—the thread scheduler can trade threads in and out whenever it likes.
