Marcus Green question

[Andres Gonzalez]

What can cause a thread to stop executing?
1) The program exits via a call to System.exit(0);
2) Another thread is given a higher priority
3) A call to the thread's stop method.
4) A call to the halt method of the Thread class?
Answer : 1,2,3
I answered 1,2 (not 3 because stop() is deprecated). If I get a question similar to this one, should I choose 3 even though the method is deprecated?

[Jose Botella]

In the exam there will not be questions about deprecated method. However if you are asked, stop will definitely stop the thread.

That's tricky because it says "CAN" and not "WILL" I got that one wrong.
