Does c# have an equivalent of the Java Runnable interface?

If not how could this be implemented or is it simply not needed?

Does c# have an equivalent of the Java Runnable interface?

Yes, it's ThreadStart

class Runner
{
    void SomeMethod() 
    {
        Thread newThread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(Run));
        newThread.Start(); 
    }

     public void Run() 
     {
          Console.WriteLine("Running in a different thread.")
     }
}

Would be equivalent to the following Java code

 class Runner implements Runnable {

     void someMethod() {
        Thread newThread = new Thread( this );
        newThread.start(); 
      }

      public void run() {
          out.println("Running in a different thread.");
      }
  }
