Difference between a daemon thread and a low priority thread

Question

Recently I was asked a question:

We\'ve got the setPriority() method to set a thread for low priority. Then why do we need a daemon thr

Answer 1

A running daemon thread will not prevent your program from ending/exiting. However, all user threads must end before your program can exit. Priority may apply to either daemon or user thread. You may understand priority the same way you understand it in everyday life.
