        if(c.contentEquals(sb)){
            System.out.println("The content is equal");
        } else {

Preemptive scheduling Vs Time slicing?
Preemptive scheduling: The highest priority task executes until it enters the waiting or dead states or a higher priority task comes into existence.

Time slicing: A task executes for a predefined slice of time and then reenters the pool of ready tasks. The scheduler then determines which task should execute next, based on priority and other factors.
