Join() Demonstration

Demonstrates the effect of the Java join() primitive. The Master thread rotates until its segment changes colour and then creates and starts the Slave thread. The Master continues rotating until the segment changes colour again at which point it joins the Slave thread. When started, the Slave rotates until it terminates. The amount of rotation by the Slave is returned as a result to the Master and displayed. The slave rotation and the time between the master starting and joining the slave can be controlled by the slider controls. To see the Master blocked waiting for the Slave to terminate, move both sliders to the left.
