namespace Lock_Statement
{
  class Program
   {
     public void printname()
      {
        Console.WriteLine("My name is Aav Kumar ");
      }

     static void Main(string[] args)
      {
        Program p = new Program();
        // creating lock segment. all the resources that is used in lock segment, can't be used by another thread until it releases.
        lock (p)   
         {
           p.printname();
         }
        Console.ReadLine();
      }
   }
}
