        // Create the thread object, passing in the Alpha.Beta method
        // via a ThreadStart delegate. This does not start the thread.
        Thread oThread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(oAlpha.Beta));
  
        // Start the thread
        oThread.Start();
  
        // Spin for a while waiting for the started thread to become
        // alive:
        while (!oThread.IsAlive);
        
        // Put the Main thread to sleep for 1 millisecond to allow oThread
        // to do some work:
        Thread.Sleep(1);
        
        // Request that oThread be stopped
        oThread.Abort();
        
        // Wait until oThread finishes. Join also has overloads
        // that take a millisecond interval or a TimeSpan object.
        oThread.Join();
        
        Console.WriteLine();
        Console.WriteLine("Alpha.Beta has finished");

        catch (ThreadStateException)
