/**
 * A thread group represents a set of threads. In addition, a thread group can
 * also include other thread groups. The thread groups form a tree in which
 * every thread group except the initial thread group has a parent.
 *
 * <p> A thread group has a name and maximum priority. The name is specified
 * when creating the group and cannot be changed. The group's maximum priority
 * is the maximum priority for threads created in the group. It is initially
 * inherited from the parent thread group but may be changed using the {@link
 * #setMaxPriority(int) setMaxPriority} method.
 *
 * <p> A thread group is weakly <a href="ref/package-summary.html#reachability">
 * <em>reachable</em></a> from its parent group so that it is eligible for garbage
 * collection when there are no {@linkplain Thread#isAlive() live} threads in the
 * group and the thread group is otherwise <i>unreachable</i>.
 *
 * <p> Unless otherwise specified, passing a {@code null} argument to a constructor
 * or method in this class will cause a {@link NullPointerException} to be thrown.
 *
 * <h2><a id="virtualthreadgroup">Thread groups and virtual threads</a></h2>
 * The Java runtime creates a special thread group for
 * <a href="Thread.html#virtual-threads">virtual threads</a>. This group is
 * returned by the {@link Thread#getThreadGroup() Thread.getThreadGroup} method
 * when invoked on a virtual thread. The thread group differs to other thread
 * groups in that its maximum priority is fixed and cannot be changed with the
 * {@link #setMaxPriority(int) setMaxPriority} method.
 * Virtual threads are not included in the estimated thread count returned by the
 * {@link #activeCount() activeCount} method, are not enumerated by the {@link
 * #enumerate(Thread[]) enumerate} method, and are not interrupted by the {@link
 * #interrupt() interrupt} method.
 *
 * @apiNote
 * Thread groups provided a way in early Java releases to group threads and provide
 * a form of <i>job control</i> for threads. Thread groups supported the isolation
 * of applets and defined methods intended for diagnostic purposes. It should be
 * rare for new applications to create ThreadGroups and interact with this API.
